Bug#428968: openssh-server: logging in using my shared keys no longer working after upgrade

2007-06-18 Thread keith001
For what it's worth, I encountered the same problem after updating.

My sshd config used to read:
## commented out for password ssh: ChallengeResponseAuthentication no
PasswordAuthentication no
which I understand:
- don't not process passwords at sshd level
- yes to Challenge/Response (handled by pam if I remember correctly)

Adding:
ChallengeResponseAuthentication yes
made it work again.

Which would mean that:
- the default value to ChallengeResponseAuthentication switched from Y to N 
with this update;
- people who report being surprised of having PasswordAuthentication no in 
their config were
probably using challenge/response as I did.

I think I remember there was a reason for using challenge/response through pam 
instead 
of direct password.
I see some activity about that in the changelog (1:4.1p1-1 for instance, says:
Disable ChallengeResponseAuthentication in new installations, returning
 to PasswordAuthentication by default, since it now supports PAM and
 apparently works better with a non-threaded sshd (closes: #247521).)

Anybody knowledgeable has an opinion?

Thanks

Bug#428968: openssh-server: logging in using my shared keys no longer working after upgrade

2007-06-17 Thread Good Times
Package: openssh-server
Version: 1:4.6p1-1
Followup-For: Bug #428968

After upgrading, I cannot log into my machine. 

 $ ssh zoe
 Permission denied (publickey).

i wanted to append this case to this bug because it seems like the two
things are related

i'm attaching a sshd -ddd and my ssh -vvv output
