You can specify an alternate identity file for ssh2 using the IdentityFile2 directive in your $HOME/.ssh/config file. IdentityFile2 Specifies the file from which the user's DSA authentication iden- tity is read (default $HOME/.ssh/id_dsa in the user's home direc- tory). The file name may use the tilde syntax to refer to a us- er's home directory. It is possible to have multiple identity files specified in configuration files; all these identities will be tried in sequence. --devin To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
