I have downloaded and installed SSH Secure Shell (non-commercial version) for Win2000.  I want to use it to log onto my Linux Server, transfer files, etc.  I have no problems logging in with my Linux user name and password.  I "thought" I should be able to ssh to the Linux box and login without having to use a password every time.

On the linux box (RH7.2) I have sshd running.  I have fun the PC version, generated public and private keys, uploaded the public key to my acct, and it still asks for the password.

Fundamentally, what am I missing here?  I am assuming I have something setup improperly on the Linux box that requires me to use additional authentication.  I have examined the sshd_config and ssh_config ... not sure what I should have there.

Any suggestions or thoughts on where to look would be greatly appreciated!
