It's also good to understand the advantage of using rsa over dsa which I'd never read before. Good article – very clear and concise.

Hi Hans,

Unfortunately I don’t have any experience with the mail app on Mac, so I can’t instruct how to use the generated keys with it.

I'd appreciate a simple comment outlining the usage of the generated keys e.g. can I include them in my keychain and use them to encrypt and sign emails with the maill.app on a Mac Os X? Thanks. Hi,

Take a look at /etc/ssh/ssh_config and see maybe it something you can tweak. I never came across such problem, it looks like there is something weird in the your ssh configuration.

I tried to generate the key without passphrase but when I try to connect to another pc OpenSSH asks for the passphrase... i just press enter and it works... but why does OpenSSH ask for the passphrase if I didn't set it? I'm working on an Ubuntu PC but I think it should be the same thing on another Linux distribution, am I right? Thank you. Hello!
