ssh passwordless login

[Charan]

Well

identity file is nothing but id_rsa file
I did copying id_rsa to identity in .ssh folder

cp id_rsa identity

and the error you mentioned below ("Unknown key type") I don't know
why this is coming here because I removed the .ssh folder and then
regenerated again but still it shows me the same error.
