Title: DES-3526 ssh publickey authentication
Post by: bg on September 29, 2010, 08:44:57 AM

The manual says that ssh authentication can be password, publickey, or hostbased.  I want to use publickey authentication.

Normally this requires the client (computer I am working at) to create a public-private key pair, and then I need to copy the client's public key to the server (system I want to log in to, the DES-3526 in this case).

The client's public key is normally put in the /home/[user]/.ssh/authorized_keys file on the server.

Where and how do I put the client's public key in the DES-3526?

Thanks,

Barry

Is public key authentication actually usable on the DES-3526 or was it just tossed in there as a marketing gimmick?

Can it be done with the DES-3028, or DGS-3612G?

Here's another one for you:
When connecting to the DES-3526 with ssh it hangs for 30 seconds before asking for a password.
My DES-3028 and DGS-3612G switches ask for a password immediately.

Any suggestions for how to fix my DES-3526s?
