Some time in the past I lost key authentication when connecting from my laptop to my server. Password works, but that's sent clear text so I want to get the server's /etc/ssh/sshd_config correct.
When I try to connect to my server this is the output: [rshepard@caddis ~]$ ssh -v salmo OpenSSH_6.7p1, OpenSSL 1.0.1k 8 Jan 2015 debug1: Reading configuration data /home/rshepard/.ssh/config debug1: Reading configuration data /etc/ssh/ssh_config debug1: Connecting to salmo [192.168.55.1] port nnnn. debug1: fd 3 clearing O_NONBLOCK debug1: Connection established. debug1: identity file /home/rshepard/.ssh/id_dsa type 2 debug1: key_load_public: No such file or directory debug1: identity file /home/rshepard/.ssh/id_dsa-cert type -1 debug1: Remote protocol version 2.0, remote software version OpenSSH_6.7 debug1: match: OpenSSH_6.7 pat OpenSSH* compat 0x04000000 debug1: Enabling compatibility mode for protocol 2.0 debug1: Local version string SSH-2.0-OpenSSH_6.7 debug1: SSH2_MSG_KEXINIT sent debug1: SSH2_MSG_KEXINIT received debug1: kex: server->client aes128-ctr [email protected] none debug1: kex: client->server aes128-ctr [email protected] none debug1: sending SSH2_MSG_KEX_ECDH_INIT debug1: expecting SSH2_MSG_KEX_ECDH_REPLY debug1: Server host key: ECDSA 1c:f8:ee:fd:eb:fe:a8:dd:b4:1c:bd:ad:6d:cd:5e:e9 debug1: Host '[salmo]:nnnn' is known and matches the ECDSA host key. debug1: Found key in /home/rshepard/.ssh/known_hosts:28 debug1: SSH2_MSG_NEWKEYS sent debug1: expecting SSH2_MSG_NEWKEYS debug1: SSH2_MSG_NEWKEYS received debug1: Roaming not allowed by server debug1: SSH2_MSG_SERVICE_REQUEST sent debug1: SSH2_MSG_SERVICE_ACCEPT received debug1: Authentications that can continue: publickey debug1: Next authentication method: publickey debug1: Offering DSA public key: /home/rshepard/.ssh/id_dsa debug1: Authentications that can continue: publickey debug1: No more authentication methods to try. Permission denied (publickey). This suggests that I've lost my public key on the server. Is that the situation? If so, I need to read up on how to re-generate my RSA/DSA key pair using my passphrase, then put the public and private keys in the correct hosts.
