I have updated my 8.10 to 9.04 ubuntu desktop. I copied a backup of my keys into the ~.ssh-Folder of my homedir.
I type ssh name@adress into the console but now a window pops up that ask me to encrypt/unlock the private key and want a password. The german headline of the window is "Privaten Schlüssel entsperren"
witch means "private key unlock". I have to type a password but every password i try is denied. How can i turn it off? I need help urgent becauase i can't logon on a server where password-auth is disabled due to security-reasons. I have chmoded the keys to 700 and i am the owner and group.
