Yes. Known_hosts may be shared (in /etc/ssh/ssh_known_hosts) but I believe that each user requires his/her own copy of the user keys in /u/<userid>/.ssh
I am fairly certain that the key files (private and public) may be copied to many /u/<userid>/.ssh directories. Alan -----Original Message----- From: IBM Mainframe Discussion List [mailto:IBM-MAIN@bama.ua.edu] On Behalf Of Mark Steely Sent: Wednesday, July 27, 2011 11:22 AM To: IBM-MAIN@bama.ua.edu Subject: z/os SSH question I have trouble gaining access to MVS-OE so I will ask the question here: I am trying to SSH to a Unix server. I have generated the keys and have successfully connected and transfer files from and to the server. The question is how can I have other z/os customers use the same RSA key. When I change the permission to read the file I receive message : permission 0664 for id_rsa are too open. Does everyone need a copy of the RSA in a directory they can only access. Any help would be appreciated.
