Fine. But it prefers a DSA key when it starts up -- and it's not clear to me, even after reading the ssh-keygen manpage, just how this is done. When you provide an arg to the prompt using -X or -x it complains the line is too long. Seems like there might be a better way, upon installation, to accomplish some of this? _F To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
