authorized_keys support was abandoned when we switched to AFS because our admins simply could not figure out how to make this feature of sshd compatible with our AFS setup and permissions. There is nothing wrong with sshd, and this is a limitation we would rather not have, but which we have been living with. It's also not something wrong with our admins, as it seems that greater installations than HCoop have not solved this problem.
You are correct that kerberos is the supported alternative to ssh keys. -ntk On Wed, 26 Nov 2008 18:32:24 -0800, "Daniel Wilkerson" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > I'll bet someone has asked this before but my meta-point is that > finding out stuff on the hoop site is sometimes a bit challenging. > Anyway, why are we using Kerberos instead of .ssh/authorized_keys to > allow automatic login?
