Documentation: Using ssh-keygen as advertised did not seem to generate usable key pairs
Created by: mhearne-usgs
Doing this:
ssh-keygen -t dsa -b 1024 -C 'Comment describing key' -f <keyfilename>
caused errors in the PDL client like this:
Invalid PEM structure, '-----BEGIN...' missing
Substituting the command:
openssl genrsa -out mykey.pem 4096
instead seemed to solve the problem.
The pdl documentation should be updated to reflect this.
It might also be nice to know why the old way stopped working. :)
