How is this related to gedit? If you run the command: ssh-keygen -t rsa ..the first option you will see is is: Generating public/private rsa key pair. Enter file in which to save the key (/home/<usernamse>/.ssh/id_rsa): I guess you chaned the path to something else. The simplest way to use the key is to name it exactly that. This will ensure things work automatically - otherwise you mayl have to manually add the path to the key when you use the ssh client application. It's enough just to rename the keys to id_rsa and id_rsa.pub, and put them in ~/.ssh, or rerun the command. /Kaj -- ubuntu-studio-devel mailing list [email protected] Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-studio-devel
