 Ok, but how do you get PuTTY to connect without requiring me to type a
password, or is that beyond its capability?  Even though I copy the private
keys
over to the Windows box, I'm still prompted for a password.  If I change
/etc/ssh/sshd_config
to avoid password authentication, then I can't login at all from PuTTY.

I'm assuming there's an issue with the Windows box having a host key but I
can see no way
to generate one.  Is RSA/DSA authentication without password challenge
possible only from
another Linux box using the ssh client?
