    Actually this isn't the case. An individual key is generated for each
    machine the first time sshd is started.

    The above comment is correct -- you'll need more than Putty to do this.
    You'll need an implementation of X running on your Windows systems.

    That'll work with version 2 as well. Although you could use "-t dsa" instead
    of "-t rsa". For a while, you used config files like
    ~/.ssh/authorized_keys2", but in current versions of SSH, protocol version 2
    uses the normal un-numbered files.
