Subject: Re: bin/27821: can't do RSA login via ssh to root account
Date: Fri, 1 Jun 2001 14:14:32 -0700

 I'm doing this with both RSA and DSA keys under stock FreeBSD 4.3 without
 a problem.  The RSA public key is in /root/.ssh/authorized_keys, the
 DSA public key is in /root/.ssh/authorized_keys2, both my RSA and DSA
 keys are loaded in my ssh-agent, and root logins "just work".
