--- Comment #21 from Petr Cerny
There's something the sshd daemon is very tricky ... Are you sure the rights about the ~.ssh folder and on file in that are rights ?
if this is group readable ssd will refuse to use key login.
should be 0700 for ~.ssh
Seems to be OK in this case - see the last attachment. Actually AFAIR (at least in the current version) ssh is ok with anything apart from writable .ssh/config and readable private keys.
If this solve your trouble, can I suggest we add a bold line in man ssh ?
I'm not really sure this is necessary, section FILES of ssh(1)/sshd(8) is quite explicit about this. (Different thing is whether it always matched the code, though.) As always with access permissions: less is more. -- 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.
