Question : Problem: Having Trouble Configuring SSHv2 Access to a PIX

Thanks in advance -- I have added to following lines to my PIX config
ssh A.B.C.D mask i/f  (for all nodes)
ssh version 2
ssh timeout 5
I have enabled ssh with the 'ip ssh' command.
I am using TeraTerm for my telnet/ssh client.  The client sees the server and is passed the correct (v2 - ssh rsa) public key, but the client will not authenticate.  When I access using telnet and the same credentials, it works great.  What am I missing, or what do I need to do to clean this up?
Also, I have noticed that, as I am using TeraTerm for SSHv2 access to an HP switch, the length of the keys is different -- 24 bytes longer for the PIX key.  Could this be a significant factor in pointing to the fault here?  Thanks again.

hi
have you generated an RSA key? you may also have a corrupt key:
depending on your OS do the following:

On PIX7.x/ASA
crypto key zeroize rsa
crypto key generate rsa modulus 2048
On PIX 6.3x
ca zeroize rsa
ca gen rsa key 2048
