Hi,
I'm runnign a batch job system (PBS) and it requires copying files
between various nodes. Due to earlier problesm I've totally disabled
ftp/rcp et al. So I'm using scp. However when I give the command:
scp -B /tmp/somefile [EMAIL PROTECTED]:/home/rajarshi/
(where a.b.c is the localhost)
I get the error:
Permission denied (publickey,password,keyboard-interactive).
lost connection
Now, in /etc/sshd_config RSAAuthentication is set to yes,
PasswordAuthentication is set to yes and PermitEmptyPasswords is also set
to yes. Furthermore I've used ssh-keygen to make my private and public
keys and have the poublic key is $HOME/.ssh/authorized_keys.
So I should be able to have passwd less logins - but doing ssh still asks
for my passwd. And scp -B still does'nt work.
Furthermore when I have the line 'BatchMode yes" (without the quotes) in
$HOME/.ssh/config, the same command above gives me:
Permission denied (publickey,password,keyboard-interactive).
lost connection
I'd really appreciate any help on this matter.
TIA,
