openssh keys THAT work from windows ????

[CharlesA]

Are you clicking on "load" or Conversions > Import key ?

EDIT: Nevermind, I tried converting the key and it gave me the same error.

EDIT2: I created a key the same way you did, but it's using a different encryption:

charles@Thor:~$ ssh-keygen

Well for me his key is working, I just don't know the passphrase obviously to actually open it.

See Screenshots of PuTTy-Gen for the results of importing both mine and highspider's key.

So my question is what version of ssh-keygen and PuTTy are you guys using?

My PuTTy-Gen says Development Snapshot 2010-07-04:r8970

I'm using Openssh (couldn't see a way from a quick glance at man page to get ssh-keygen's version)
OpenSSH_5.5p1 Debian-4ubuntu5, OpenSSL 0.9.8o 01 Jun 2010

sorry for delay LOL your post where on page2 I keep reloading page1


PuTTYgen
Release 0.60.0.0

I will try your version and reply the results

[jerome1232]

In case your having trouble finding it, (actually this one is newer than mine but whatever it should work)

It is here!

[CharlesA]

Ah, newer version. That explains it.

Mine was version 0.60

I was using the version of ssh-keygen found in Lucid.

[jerome1232]

Lucid is 10.10 right? I wonder why your getting DEC while highspider and I are getting AES.


edit: I'm going to take a second to laugh at myself, right next to my portrait it says 10.10 Maverick Meerkat.


doh, so the default must have switched between versions.

In case .... Yeapers Was having trouble. works

Lucid is 10.04.
