Jim,
Hmmm. With the F-Secure SSH client (the non-GPL DataFellows client) all
I did was remove the CR/LF from the exported pub key block and manually
pasted it in to the authorized_keys2 file. This worked fine for that
client, but does not work with the pub key exported from MacSSH. I did
not know about this conversion process. The pub key string from MacSSH
*looks* the same, but perhaps this is the problem. The error message on
the server does seem to suggest that there is some problem with the
format of the key.
