You may want to verify that you're using the same version and type of key. ie: ssh1/rsa ssh2/rsa or ssh2/dsa. Different defaults are used on different versions of freebsd, and I've no idea what might be used in Redhat. man ssh-keygen for more, but the essence is in the FILES section: $HOME/.ssh/identity protocol version 1 RSA authentication identity $HOME/.ssh/identity.pub protocol version 1 RSA public key $HOME/.ssh/id_dsa protocol version 2 DSA authentication $HOME/.ssh/id_dsa.pub protocol version 2 DSA public key $HOME/.ssh/id_rsa protocol version 2 RSA authentication $HOME/.ssh/id_rsa.pub protocol version 2 RSA public key --- david raistrick drais@atlasta.net http://www.expita.com/nomime.html
