Re: quite OT [solved] but interesting

After lots of hunting I re-installed high sierra from scratch. Public key DID work. I slowly restored from a time machine backup until it stopped working. The culprit was .ssh directory. I put the working .ssh dir back and copied my id’s and config to the working .ssh dir. Public key still

Hi All just in case this is the issue, both machines being “up to date”, and it affects others it is not an issue no more noise I promise --- This works (passwd-less login): [pussycat] /Users/mary [501]% sshd --help OpenSSH_7.5p1,

Re: quite OT

Just to be sure: as your ~/.ssh/authorized_keys only contains this one pubkey, the file should be identical to the corresponding ~/.ssh/id_rsa.pub on the client side. Please verify that it is haycorn$ cksum ~/.ssh/authorized_keys twill$ cksum ~/.ssh/id_rsa.pub On Sep 05 08:08:29, h...@stare.cz

Re: no longer quite OT

As for password-less, you don't need MacPorts sshd for that. Some OS versions back, that just worked. Now you have to do a little bit to make it work (outgoing - it still works incoming, with the usual measures, give or take something odd in /etc/ssh/sshd_config). Here's some discussion

Hi All since I’ve been unable to solve passwd-less login on High Sierra I installed port openssh. All good except I have two daemons waiting on port 22. I can easily find the LaunchDaemon for openssh but I cannot fathom how apple run their ssh daemon, or even what it is called. I miss
