As i was trying many times to generate a valid keypair with “puttygen” i was searching the internet for alternatives and i found this:

http://www.unixwerk.de/solaris/openssh.html

I was able to use the “ssl-keygen -t dsa” command on my ubuntu 6.10 server without any additional packages (except the necessary ones for pandora) installed.

The command generates a valid pair of keys in a very simple way.

Hope this helps some of you.

Thanks Mario, we have found a bug in windows ssh libraries that it’s fixed now. To generate a valid openssh key with Puttygen you need to insert a carriage return in keyfile or download new binary from our SVN.
