Hi,

I've pre-defined public keys in my "~/.ssh/authorized_keys2" file so
that I can ssh to these machines without requiring a password every
time.  This is mostly to allow scripting with minimal hassle.

For some reason, even though the ssh session starts fine and no
password is required, emacs asks for a password anyway.  How can I
stop that?

Thanks,
-T

Probably simply authorized_keys is the right name for the file.

Nevertheless after years of using it, I find Cygwin's ssh pretty more
comfortable from a command line or Emacs than Putty. Being both of
them very nice pieces of software nevertheless.

Cordially, Ismael

I previously had the same issues with authorized_keys, I switched to using
pagaent from the PuTTY distribution to act as ssh-agent and that seemed to solve it for me.  HTH
