Re: Cannot authenticate with DSA-pubkey in Etch
Emh, sorry, but i didn't past the config and the errors because I
thought that attach to the mail was better.
Anyway, the default sshd_config is NOT right for the authentication with
pubkey, because the Password Authentication is set to 'yes' in default
config.
I changed only:
PubkeyAuthentication yes
ChallengeResponseAuthentication no
PasswordAuthentication no
The permissions are ok.
And i've copied the id_dsa.pub in this way:
# scp ~/.ssh/id_dsa.pub \
leopard@server.example.com:~/.ssh/authorized_keys
Jonathan Wilson, you're to nervous. Calm. Life is good. Open a txt
file ? == 2 seconds. To read 10-11 lines ? 20 seconds.
Kisses.
Any help would be appreciate.
