WTF are you talking about? Do you have any idea how public/private
keys work?

Unlike you, I can create RSA and ElGamal key pairs with pencil and
paper.

So? How does that get you MINE?

That wasn't your question.


That did not answer mine.



My statement is true,

No, it is not.

because saving a key unencrypted is a security risk.

And to unencrypt your encrypted key, you use a

PASSWORD! Opps, you method is STILL protected with PASSWORDS!

True, but it's no password-based authentication.
I could tell you my
passphrase, and you still wouldn't be able to login.

Then why bother encrypting it?

Further I'm secure
against MITM attacks, you're not.

SSH warns of the possibility. I am safe from hacker exploiting an
vulnerability before it gets parched, you are not.

Guessing my private key is
impractical. You don't have a place to start with. You won't get into
my system, although I'm willing to provide you with all details about
it.

The place I would start on your system is to watch hacker blogs and lists
for vulnerabilities and attack your open port.

My system is just secure. Period.

That contradicts what you said in:

Message ID: <e12ucc$t63$00$1@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

"There is no TOTAL security."

How can you claim "My system is just secure. Period." while saying "There
is no TOTAL security."?

It is clear to me that you can not successfully show where my system fails
and you will say what ever is convenient at the time, even if it
contradicts what you already have said, to continue your "win at all costs,
regardless of the facts" babbling.
