I am trying to setup RSA key log in for users with 4.1-release and
TeraTerm client:

(1) Run ssh-keygen, copy $HOME/.ssh/identity.pub to
/etc/ssh/authorized_keys (If I have setup up more users, I will add each
identity.pub file to authorized_keys instead of copying).

(2) Ftp $HOME/.ssh/identity to Windows using binary mode.

(3) Startup Tera Term, choose "Use RSA key to log in" and use the file I
got in step (2) as the private key file.

It says "authentication fails". What is wrong with these steps?  BTW, how
to add the FreeBSD host as a known host - which file to copy over from
FreeBSD to Windows?

Thanks for any help.
