RE: F-Secure client talking to OpenSSH server

The results of a search of the string
F-Secure OpenSSH public key
at www.google.com indicates that the keys generated by the two products
are not compatible but you should be able to convert the public key to
an OpenSSH compatible format. I find that the search results under the
'groups' heading are often more recent and therefore up to date than the
ones returned under the 'web' heading. I'll leave it as an exercise for
you to browse through all of the info to find the correct fix.

Subject: F-Secure client talking to OpenSSH server

Hello,

I need to let one server running Solaris 5.6 and F-Secure SSH 3.0.1
transfer files to another server running OpenSSH 4.3p1 using sftp.
I have put the public key from the client into the server's $HOME/.ssh
directory, but OpenSSH does not recognize it:
debug: server offers auth methods
'publickey,password,keyboard-interactive'.
debug: Ssh2AuthClient/sshauthc.c:316/ssh_authc_completion_proc: Method
'publickey' disabled.
debug: server offers auth methods
'publickey,password,keyboard-interactive'.
debug: Ssh2AuthPasswdClient/authc-passwd.c:113/ssh_client_auth_passwd:
In Batchmode, so we're not asking the user for password.
debug: Ssh2AuthClient/sshauthc.c:316/ssh_authc_completion_proc: Method
'password' disabled.
debug: server offers auth methods
'publickey,password,keyboard-interactive'.
debug: Ssh2Common/sshcommon.c:137/ssh_common_disconnect: DISCONNECT
received: No further authentication methods available.

Any hints ?
