warf, did not see that, thanks 
i’m now able to log with the rsa key from windows to linux \o/
from opensuse to windows too : but i still need a password, i’m still looking where to store the public key. I have mine in the path of freeSSHd but it seems it’s not enough.
i also tried with mobassh server but can’t find where to store the public key.

Hi
The keys file in the freeSSHd directory must be called (named) the same
as your user login to the windows machine.
If for example you login to the windows machine as fabrice, then the
file needs to be named that.

This i did, on the windows machine i have users : user and fabrice
the rsa public key in freeSSHd directory is named user too, do i need the private or public key there ?
where is private key supposed to be pasted in windows ? in the same dir ?
in freeSSHd authentication thumb i’d like to disable password and require key but it does not work if set this way , i need to allow both options to be able to access giving the password.
i’d like the key to be used only.
(see below it’s trying private key , and asking password to be able to access )

Hi
And on the FreeSSHd ‘Users’ user is added? On the SSH tab rsa and dsa
keys have been generated?

hi,
i have already a ‘user’ in the users tab but i have not generated any key with freeSSHd . I have generated keys (public and private) with the client (puttygen).
Isn’t it ok ?

Actually some keys are already shown in the ssh tab, are they the public keys ? (C:\Program Files\freeSSHd\RSAKey.cfg and C:\Program Files\freeSSHd\DSAKey.cfg)
Do i need to generate both private keys (you mentionned RSA and DSA ) ?
Where is this private key to be used then, so that key access will work from openSUSE ?

Hi
As long as the keys were generated you should be fine.
Here is the debug output from my connection to it.

I’m wondering if the id_rsa.pub file is corrupted… if you use
something like winscp to re-copy the id_rsa.pub file into the freeSSHd
directory. Copy it to the correct user name before copying, so you
don’t need to touch it with a windows editor…
