Hi group....

It looks like I am going to need some (300-500) key sets to use with
putty. With OpenSSHs ssh-keygen I guess I could script making that
amount of keys... but to me it looks like that to be able to use a SSH2
key with putty you would either need to make that key pair with
puttykeygen or convert the OpenSSH key pair with it...

Both of each tasks seem a bit tedious to me....

But it seems to me I am not the only one having this problem. So I
googled for a solution keyword being "putty bulk key generation" and
things like that.... with no result I am afraid.

Does any of you know of a way to do this job?

regards

Peter Kaagman
