Seems you are right. I had discovered the need for 'authorized_keys2'
some time ago, and been using it ever since.
But I just tried moving it to 'authorized_keys' and it appears that is
now accepted for protocol 2 also.
However I just tried:
cd $HOME/.ssh
scp skaro:.ssh/authorized_keys2 .
on a newly installed machine, giving:
2.gentoo:.ssh> ls -l
total 8
-rw-r--r-- 1 digbyt digbyt 1149 Mar 28 09:54 authorized_keys2
-rw-r--r-- 1 digbyt digbyt 838 Mar 18 15:14 known_hosts
And from another host:
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:/home/digbyt> ssh gentoo
Last login: Mon Mar 28 09:55:21 2005 from voyager2.cthulhu.dircon.co.uk
UTF-8 activated!
gentoo:/home2/digbyt>
So it works as expected for me.
Are you sure your access permissions and ownership is correct for your
authorised_keys file? It will be ignored if it is group or world writeable,
or owned by the wrong person. Have you modified the sshd config file
at all (mine is untouched).
