David, Is SHH port 22 allowed through the firewall on the desktop? Make sure /etc/ssh/sshd.config is as you want it on the desktop.

Not really a SuSE issue, I think, but I'd be grateful for any help, as trawling through the man pages and google hasn't helped me.
I'm trying to access my SuSE 10 OSS desktop from my Nokia Communicator 9500 mobile 'phone, using PuTTY for symbian, but when I try to log in and am asked for the user password, it is not accepted: I have not set up any other passwords for ssh. According to the PuTTY for Symbian documentation, I need to generate rsa keys (for ssh1): I have done this (using ssh-keygen) and made sure that the private key is available on both the 'phone and the desktop. Also, both protocols 1 and 2 are enabled in /etc/ssh/ssh_config. I'm a bit stuck on where to go now and if anyone could point me towards some possible solutions, I'd be grateful. I think I need an idiots's guide to ssh so if anyone knows of a link, that might help!
Many thanks all.
David
