Okay, the scenario and what was done:
The same user on two different machines: Machine_A has OpenSSH_3.0.2p1 (IRIX 6.5.13m) Machine_B has OpenSSH_2.9p2 (Red Hat 7.2) The following commands were executed on both systems: - step 1: ssh-keygen -b 1024 -t dsa default file was left at $HOME/.ssh/id_dsa no passphrase - step 2: the generated id_dsa.pub files were exchanged and cat-ed into $HOME/.ssh/authorized_keys Problem: Only Machine_B can scp into the other without being prompted for a password. Machine_A can not scp into Machine_A without being prompted for a password.
