<br>If so, how do I do that, or where to find appropriate infos?<br><br>Or should I rather generate a different key pair for putty?<br>How would that be done, and how to implemet it, without<br>superseeding the one already in use with secureCRT?

<br>Yes, you can alternately use puttygen.exe to generate (and export) fresh keys then use SecureCRT to add them to ~/.ssh/authorized_keys<br><br>Remember to save your putty settings before connecting. Remember to use SSH2. Remember to fiddle with "Window" --> "Translation" to get UTF-8.
<br><br>If I recall correctly, you still can't save "default settings" but if you give the connection a name (e.g. "toolserver") before saving, they persist.<br><br>Connel<br>
