Turn PasswordAuthentication to no and PubkeyAuthentication to yes in your /etc/ssh/sshd_conf. > (to be placed there by me, your friendly sysadmin). You should define a global authorized_keys file then. Use AuthorizedKeysFile in your /etc/ssh/sshd_conf to set the path to your file. There is another way to control which users can log in and which can't. You can block/allow users with DenyUsers and AllowUsers (also in your /etc/ssh/sshd_conf) > Any pointers as to how to do this, or as to where to find pertinent > docs, would be greatly appreciated. man 5 sshd_conf -- Lothar -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
