I am using trial version 2.11 now, I generated a RSA key for ssh2, but I need one to be generated for ssh1. I can not figure out how to do.
I even reinstalled the program thinking it might just generate once, but this did not work.
Any help is appreciated on how I can generate the key.
Currently, AbsoluteTelnet version 2.11 can only generate keys for SSH version 2. SSH 1 keys are in the works. For now, I'd suggest generating the key on your host and then moving it to your client machine.
Thank You for the response.
I can only connect to my site via SSH and not telnet. So what I did was download the trial of securecrt and generated the key.
SecureCRT worked fine to connect.
I would rather purchase your program because of the price but it does not seem to recognize the private key file on my computer that SecureCRT generated.
Any thoughts? and thanks again.
Secure CRT generates the private key files in it's own format. They are not compatible with AbsoluteTelnet.
If you can connect to your server and generate the keys there (ssh-keygen), you can use that private key file with Absolute (ssh1 or ssh2).
Remember, though, that ssh1 and ssh2 use different key formats. Read the man page for ssh-keygen if you need more detail.
