Ok..for some reason I have not having any luck using a ssh key to ssh as root from a RHEL5 box to a RHEL6 system.
Is there any gotchas? I even generated a new ssh key on the RHEL6 box, copied the id_rsa file to the RHEL5 box, and added the public to the RHEL6 authorized_keys file and still the RHEL6 box will not allow the key. debug2: input_userauth_request: try method publickey debug1: temporarily_use_uid: 0/0 (e=0/0) debug1: trying public key file /root/.ssh/authorized_keys debug1: restore_uid: 0/0 debug1: temporarily_use_uid: 0/0 (e=0/0) debug1: trying public key file /root/.ssh/authorized_keys2 debug1: restore_uid: 0/0 Failed publickey for root from 10.240.44.50 port 30803 ssh2 debug2: userauth_pubkey: authenticated 0 pkalg ssh-rsa debug1: userauth-request for user root service ssh-connection method keyboard-interactive debug1: attempt 2 failures 1 _______________________________________________ rhelv6-beta-list mailing list rhelv6-beta-list@redhat.com https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/rhelv6-beta-list
