Hi,
I am trying to get acquainted with sshd...
I have port forwarded the ssh port on my router to
my server.
On my portable I have created a public/private key
and copied the public part over to the server.
On the server I have changed the /etc/sshd_config option
PasswordAuthentication yes
to
PasswordAuthentication no
and rebooted.
I went to one of the other machines on the local
net that does not have the public/private key
and when I ssh to the server I get a prompt
for a password.
If I respond with the correct password for my account
I get access to the server.
The behavior I want is to *force* asking for a (correct)
pass phrase in order to gain access to the
server.
Evidently setting PasswordAuthentication to no
is not sufficient. What have I missed?
Jerry
