Thing is, the contents of pvisrep01_openssh.pub look very similar to the original SSH2 file - the first 10 and last 10 characters match exactly, and I wonder if this is normal or if I am not doing the conversion properly.
Also, does OpenSSH daemon not accommodate connections using SSH2 keys? When I test the connection using a WinSCP client, my settings indicate the protocol being used is "SSH protocol version 2"; and I can connect fine using the public key. Is a "conversion" even necessary then? |

-i This option will read an unencrypted private (or public) key file
in SSH2-compatible format and print an OpenSSH compatible private (or public) key to stdout. ssh-keygen also reads the RFC 4716 SSH Public Key File Format. This option allows importing keys from several commercial SSH implementations. |
