Hi everybody, I forgetted to say that the /home directory is the same for all nodes. I means that the ~/.ssh directory is also the same...
Should copy all the keys (in fact all the /etc/ssh directory) on all nodes? Or is it possible to specify the pub keys (and also an authorized_keys) somwhere in /etc/ssh so that resources are shared for all users of the cluster? Thanks very much for your help...
