Permission denied (publickey).

The dsa doesn't look right I thought that it should read rsa??
I think the dsa is okay - it tries the rsa key first, then looks to see whether there's a dsa key to try next. It looks like you've either entered the wrong pass phrase for the rsa key, or have the wrong public key data on the server. Enable and check the server logs as well - see if those give any more information.

That's what I thought so I must have tried it 3 times yet still getting the same message.

There are 2 files pacmanster & pacmanster.pub in the .ssh folder. I leave the pacmanster file alone and I copy the output from the pacmanster.pub file into a pacmanster file on the server (FreeSHd on the PC).

Like I said, tried it 3 times and still can't find the issue.

Okay, if your local file isn't named id_rsa then you'll need to specify the filename in your config file:
Code:
IdentityFile ~/.ssh/pacmanster

To try and isolate the issue. I set up a new public/private key didn't enter a passphrase and used id_rsa (/home/user/.ssh/id_rsa.pub)

debug1: Next authentication method: publickey
debug1: Trying private key: /home/user/.ssh/identity
debug1: Offering public key: /home/user/.ssh/id_rsa
debug1: Server accepts key: pkalg ssh-rsa blen 277
debug1: read PEM private key done: type RSA
debug1: Authentications that can continue: publickey
debug1: Trying private key: /home/user/.ssh/id_dsa
debug1: No more authentication methods to try.
Permission denied (publickey).

Where I must be making the mistake is either in the copy and paste to the pacmanster file on freeSSHd (from id_rsa.pub) or in the naming of the file to pacmaster (no extension) on freeSSHd.

Using port 521 instead of 522 (and yes this corresponds to the config file)

I've enabled the logging file on freeSSHd but getting no results so it doesn't seem to be hitting freeSSHd at all

UPDATE: Finally got this working by simply starting and restarting FreeSHd.

How do you clean the IP list on the VNC viewer on the N900....the list started to become huge!

Thanks

You can clear the list by running (in X Terminal):
Code:
gconftool-2 --set --type list --list-type=string /apps/maemo/vncviewer/hosts "[]"

Copy and rename the public key from the N900 (/home/user/.ssh/id_rsa.pub) to C:\Program Files\freeSSHd\fred on the PC (the same name as you used for the user you created earlier, with no file extension).


how do u do this?

The easiest way would be to run (in X Terminal):
Code:
cp /home/user/.ssh/id_rsa.pub /home/user/MyDocs
You should then be able to connect the phone up to the PC (in either PC Suite or Mass Storage mode) and copy the file off. In PC Suite mode it'll be in the Data directory (I think), and in Mass Storage mode it should be in the root directory.

Either create it on the PC (make sure the editor you use is capable of saving in UNIX file format though) and copy it over, or use something like leafpad to create it on the N900.
