[Haifux] SSH

[Amir Spivak]

Hi all,   I have in my network a very wierd SSH issue, i have 2 machines, A(RH 7.X) is the client and B(RH 9.0) is the server. i set up a connection for myself from A to B and it's working fine, for some reason, setting exactly the same parameters doesn't work for another user from A to B. i triple checked all the dir. and file permissions in the ~/.ssh dir. for him and me are equal. and made sure that the key in A:~/.ssh/identity.pub is equal to the key in B: ~/.ssh/authorized_keys for him. the output that i get for him is: [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~/.ssh$ ssh -v  linus SSH Version 1.2.26 [i686-unknown-linux], protocol version 1.5. Standard version.  Does not use RSAREF. rocky: Reading configuration data /home/bwurzbur/.ssh/config rocky: Applying options for * rocky: Reading configuration data /etc/ssh/ssh_config rocky: Applying options for * rocky: ssh_connect: getuid 558 geteuid 0 anon 0 rocky: Connecting to linus [192.168.85.166] port 22. rocky: Allocated local port 1023. rocky: Connection established. rocky: Remote protocol version 1.99, remote software version OpenSSH_3.7.1p2 rocky: Waiting for server public key. rocky: Received server public key (768 bits) and host key (1024 bits). rocky: Host 'linus' is known and matches the host key. rocky: Initializing random; seed file /home/bwurzbur/.ssh/random_seed rocky: Encryption type: 3des rocky: Sent encrypted session key. rocky: Installing crc compensation attack detector. rocky: Received encrypted confirmation. rocky: No agent. rocky: Trying RSA authentication with key '[EMAIL PROTECTED]' rocky: Server refused our key.
