(2) Ftp $HOME/.ssh/identity to Windows using binary mode. (3) Startup Tera Term, choose "Use RSA key to log in" and use the file I got in step (2) as the private key file. It says "authentication fails". What is wrong with these steps? BTW, how to add the FreeBSD host as a known host - which file to copy over from FreeBSD to Windows? Thanks for any help. -Zhihui To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
