Jim,
Yeah, it's easy to be ambiguous with ~/.ssh/ :-)
Here's salmo/~/.ssh/
-rw------- 1 rshepard users 1239 Nov 8 2010 authorized_keys2
-rw------- 1 rshepard users 736 Nov 8 2010 id_dsa
-rw------- 1 rshepard users 620 Nov 8 2010 id_dsa.pub
-rw------- 1 rshepard users 3513 Jul 9 2011 known_hosts
Here, id_dsa.pub has 1 entry:
ssh-dss ... rshepard at salmo.appl-ecosys.com
and authorized_keys2 has 2 entries:
ssh-dss ... rshepard at lemna.appl-ecosys.com
ssh-dss ... rshepard at pachy.appl-ecosys.com
Shouldn't the public key be the same for all hosts?
On the laptop, caddis, id_dsa.pub terminates with
rshepard at salmo.appl-ecosys.com.
Do I generate a new key pair on the laptop, then append the new id_dsa.pub
to the server's authorized_keys2 file?
Thanks,
Rich
