hi ,
sorry that I am a newbie to fedora FC5, I used to be in Solaris
environment.
i could not configure correctly for public key ssh login as I used to do
in Solaris.
my step:
1) cat my public key and put in my $fedora_user/.ssh/authorized_keys
2) configure fedora's /etc/ssh/sshd_config, uncomment the following 2 lines
PubkeyAuthentication yes
AuthorizedKeysFile .ssh/authorized_keys
3) restart sshd with /sbin/service sshd restart or restart fedora ...
However, ssh login still prompts me for password.....
did i miss anything ? pls help!!

Try using the -v flag on the ssh command. This outputs some verbose info and may
indicate where the problem is.
I presume the private key on the client matches the public key you have
installed on the server?
