regenerate public key I tried to google my question without any answer that works...

I have an id_dsa private key, but "lost" my public one.

When I generate a new public one with ssh-keygen -yf .ssh/id_dsa &gt; .ssh/id_dsa.pub, ssh starts asking me for password instead of passphrase.

It might be related to xattr on that file? If yes, didn't find how to set proper xattr on id_dsa.pub.

Any idea how to regenerate my public key ? (excepted generate a new keypair ^^)

Thanks for the time you spent reading me ;-)

[edit] 

hope this will help

you should really use RSA or some other key type. DSA is not recommended, because it has fixed size 1024 bits which is not enough nowadays.

If you really have to use it, you can add to your ~/.ssh/config

PubkeyAcceptedKeyTypes +ssh-dss


as described in the official documentation for legacy altorithms.
