Hi,

I am running Openssh-2.9p2 on a Redhat 7.2 Linux box, and the F-Secure SSH
Client v 4.3 Build 11 on a Win32 box.

I can successfully connect to my Linux box via the F-Secure client using
either password authentication or via a SSH1/RSA publis key, but it will not
use the SSH2/DSA key I generated. I created the key using the F-Secure key
generation wizard, and the copied the public key to the clipboard, and then
pasted it into a file called authorized_keys2 in the .ssh folder of my home
drive. The format of the file is as follows:

---- BEGIN SSH2 PUBLIC KEY ----
Subject: Dummy_DSA
Comment: dummy@dummy.org
...
---- END SSH2 PUBLIC KEY ----

The sshd_config file in /etc/ssh has a line 'Protocol 2,1', but the rest of
the file is default (I have not posted the whole thing here, but can if it
helps).

Am I missing something really stupid here?

Thanks,
Chris
