I am simply not getting something, I don't know what. I still need to enter a password. Ok I am trying to ssh into machine linuxbox from machine freebsd. I am using ssh2, not ssh. I have created RSA keys for root on both linuxbox and freebsd, neither has a password. I did this: # cat freebsd_identity.pub >> ~/.ssh2/authorized_keys But when I try to ssh into the linux box or into the freebsd box, I am asked for a password. What am I missing?
