Is the server you're trying to set the ssh key up on not already in your known_hosts file?
Comment 2 fc198364@gmail.com 2008-12-05 16:59:07 UTC 
Yes , the server i am trying to set the ssh key up on not already in my known_fuile,but I think it is a bug,should we only set the ssh key up on know hosts?
Comment 3 Adam Schreiber 2008-12-05 18:20:53 UTC 
The non-response of the dialog is the bug, the user should be able to set the key up on systems that are not in the known_hosts file.  This prompt is from the ssh-agent in gnome-keyring.  I'm moving the bug.
Comment 4 Stef Walter 2008-12-11 20:16:09 UTC 
Hmmm, I don't think this is part of gnome-keyring. Seahorse handles the pushing out of keys to remote hosts. I'll probably end up doing the work on this anyway though.
