Hi, We're using Dropbear 0.48 What i did: I downloaded "openssh-4.6p1.tar.gz" and compiled it on a different system than the target system. I wasn't able to compile a more recent version since it wouldn't find openSSL even tho it is installed (0.9.8 - I tried to pass the correct path with --with-ssl-dir but it wouldn't work). Anyways, I got ssh compiled, I copied the "ssh-keygen" binary onto our target (pc 104, geode) system from where I issued "ssh-keygen -N '' -t dsa -f file" it to create a public key pair, I copied the pub part into the authorized_keys file on our server (OpenSSH_4.3p2, OpenSSL 0.9.7i 14 Oct 2005) but it wouldn't let the client in with out a password, why not??? I'm stuck, I have no idea what's going on. I can get in from a system NOT using Dropbear so the permissions of /root/.ssh and all above/below should be set right, i also can't see any messages in /var/log/messages. I can cat the authorized_keys file and it looks all good.... :o Any hints on this? Is there some version conflict going on or something?
Thanks alot! Ron
