[NBLUG/talk] OpenSSH2 with public key (no password)

I found a web page that describes the sshd_config entry
"PubkeyAuthentication":
http://sysadminnews.com/sysadminnews-32-20030707AuthenticatingbyPublicKeyOpenSSH.html

It says the default is yes, I assume that means even if the line does not
exist, but RedHat 9.0 may have defaulted to a config file that says no.

Perhaps that's my problem. It's on the host, which I do not control and
can't read the config, I'm sending an email and see what happens.

Thanks,

Bob
