[Patrice Blanchard_2]

Hi,

i'm trying to use sftp on my hp-ux system

i've created a public key but still the process is asking me for a userid and password.

   Client and server on the same system?

> i've created a public key [...]

   How/where, exactly?

> root@apsrvn:[/root]# [...]

   User "root" can be blocked by a server because it's "root".  Have you
checked the server configuration file for that?

debug1: Offering public key: /root/.ssh/id_rsa
debug1: Authentications that can continue: password,publickey,keyboard-interactive

debug1: Offering public key: /root/.ssh/id_dsa
debug1: Authentications that can continue: password,publickey,keyboard-interactive

   To me, that looks as if the server is rejecting each of those two
public keys.  If you want details on why, then you'll need to look at
the server logs.  (The server should know why it's unhappy, but it won't
help someone break in by telling the client why.)
