OpenSSH 3.7.1p2 and HP-UX11i

[Wolfram Greinert]

Hello,

We have a problem with OpenSSH and HP-UX 11i. With OpenSSH_3.6.1p1 we can
use the publickeys (~/.ssh/id_rsa). With the same .ssh-dir and config-files
in /etc/openssh OpenSSH_3.7.1p2 will not use the publickeys and prompt
for password :-( We have try this with OpenSSL 0.9.7b and OpenSSL 0.9.7c !
Why OpenSSH_3.7.1p2 not use my publickey-files ????????
The OpenSSH_3.7.1p2-Server (sshd) has no problems with publickeys from
other clients, but the OpenSSH_3.7.1p2-Clients (ssh,scp) will not use
our publickeys :-(

Here are debug output from OpenSSH_3.6.1p1 and OpenSSH_3.7.1p2:
