[rhelv6-beta-list] SSH via key from RHEL5 to RHEL6?

[Don Hoover]

Ok..for some reason I have not having any luck using a ssh key to ssh as root from a RHEL5 box to a RHEL6 system.

Is there any gotchas?

I even generated a new ssh key on the RHEL6 box, copied the id_rsa file to the RHEL5 box, and added the public to the RHEL6 authorized_keys file and still the RHEL6 box will not allow the key.
