Error trying to SSH from HP-UX to Windows without pass

[José Enrique González]

Hi:

I have a HP-UX 11.23 box trying to SSH to a Windows 2003 Server running OpenSSH. Public keys are exchanged fron the HPUX to the Windows an accepted, as the debug trace shows. However, the connection is closed inmediately opened. Here's the full log May you tell me what cpuld be wrong in the Windows side? Thanks a lot!

Shalom,

I assume there is a user on both systems that is the same name and hopefully numeric id.

Possible Problems:
1) Permission on the key file, .ssh directory or home directory on Windows 2003 Server.

There may be further logging information no the Windows box under event viewer, take a look there and any logs the openssh product for windows may have.
