I hope this is an appropriate question for this list.
I personally use OpenSSH as do most of the remote machines that I access.
However, one administrator chooses to use the commercial version
of SSH. I use Private/Public keys to logon to my remote machines. I am
having a problem using my OpenSSH generated key to logon to the machine
using the commercial version. They are apparently, non-compatible. Would
any of you happen to have some advice on how to get this working correctly?
You can convert the OpenSSH generated key to the format expected by the
version on the server. See OpenSSH's ssh-keygen(1):
-e This option will read a private or public OpenSSH key file and
print the key in RFC 4716 SSH Public Key File Format to stdout.
This option allows exporting keys for use by several commercial
SSH implementations.

Good judgement comes with experience. Unfortunately, the experience
usually comes from bad judgement.
