Bug#607602: openssh-server: Bogus warning, "Authentication tried for XXX with correct key but not from a permitted host"
Package: openssh-server
Version: 1:5.5p1-5+b1
Severity: normal
I'm getting this warning by mistake. If my authorized_keys file
contains:
from="hostA" ssh-dss <hostA-key> <hostA-addr>
from="hostB" ssh-dss <hostB-key> <hostB-addr>
I *always* get this warning when coming in from hostB. If I swap the
order, for example:
from="hostB" ssh-dss <hostB-key> <hostB-addr>
from="hostA" ssh-dss <hostA-key> <hostA-addr>
then I only get this warning when coming in from hostA.
I would expect that I could come in from either hostA *or* hostB
without this warning.
