--- Comment #11 from Petr Cerny
No discrepancies found from rpm -V openssh
In my original output from "ssh -vvv george" where ssh should start looking at the public key it didn't and went on to authenticate private keys. RE: https://bugzillafiles.novell.org/attachment.cgi?id=427611
Sorry, I don't really understand this. The log says, that the only keys that ssh wanted to try didn't exist: debug1: /home/knoppix/.ssh/identity debug3: no such identity: /home/knoppix/.ssh/identity debug1: Trying private key: /home/knoppix/.ssh/id_rsa debug3: no such identity: /home/knoppix/.ssh/id_rsa debug1: Trying private key: /home/knoppix/.ssh/id_dsa debug3: no such identity: /home/knoppix/.ssh/id_dsa Hence it wasn't able to authenticate and had to fall back to password prompt.
When I use "ssh-agent" and add the public key it reads and accepts the public key, outputs a signature then sign_send the public key but still asks for the interactive password. RE: https://bugzillafiles.novell.org/attachment.cgi?id=428002
IMHO you are adding wrong file: ~/.ssh/george-rsa2-key.pub is the public part of the key and is of no interest to ssh client. You should feed ssh (or ssh-agent) the private part of the key. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
