Try setting IdentitiesOnly yes in your ssh config file. It seems that if you have lots of public keys, then by default on the newer ssh, the key agent will offer them all. Setting IdentitiesOnly yes will make ssh only go for the correct key, and not all of them!

I've found an another workaround: - remove files with *.pub extension from ~.ssh folder I don't have an idea, but may this issue is connected with seahorse agent?

putty (0.60-3) fails with the same error (too many authentication errors). putty is not configured at all on this machine so it should be in passwd auth mode. However, ss soon as I put in my login name it comes up with the error. -- openssh public key auth broken if one has many keys but only in X11 https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/309160 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Server Team, which is subscribed to openssh in ubuntu. -- Ubuntu-server-bugs mailing list Ubuntu-server-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-server-bugs

workaround/fix: - move all keys into subdirectories and update config to reflect changes. - even with multiple keys in subdirectories it does not try the wrong keys. hypothesis: - the ssh client looks in ~/.ssh and tries any files it deems to be keys, even when 'config' is configured explicitly with the appropriate key. Fortunately, it does not recurse into subdirs.n other observations: - the behaviour persists without a config file and specifying the key on the command line (ie. ssh -i keyfile host) - this fixes putty, also (must have been patched to use ~/.ssh at some time) -- openssh public key auth broken if one has many keys but only in X11 https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/309160 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Server Team, which is subscribed to openssh in ubuntu. -- Ubuntu-server-bugs mailing list Ubuntu-server-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-server-bugs
