I am not sure why it is offering the .pub key. That key was copied over to the server. Or I guess the it's the server offering the public key? I can't differentiate which line belongs to which host.
  • Do I need to create the key with the user I am trying to log in with (i.e. create with root user)? (I created the keys with a regular user on my mac)
  • Do I need to create keys on the SSHd server (openBSD) or the remote machine (my mac) or does that matter?
