I could not get that cat command to work but it is easy to use filezilla and edit the authorized_keys2 file and paste

the contents of the id_dsa.pub file. Anyway, thanks to Paul, because it is working great now. I just updated thousands

of files in a few minutes. That would have taken forever to ftp all of those. In order to get all the files there the

first time, I used FileZilla for many hours over several weekends. Now with rsync, it is smart enough to know which

files have changed. I should have everything automated by next week. Thanks a lot to Paul. I knew it would be something

really simple, but sometimes you can stare at something forever and never see it. If I had simply looked at the date and

time that the C:\cygwin\home folder was created, that would have led me to the location and files I needed.

You'll also want to return to the target machine and erase the

original id_dsa.pub from your home directory.

On many Linuxes, the ssh_copy_id script will do this all for you as an

automated task. Really handy.
