Hi, I'm trying to set up passwordless authentication in ssh version 2 on my machines at work.
Here are the steps I took (instructions from www.ices.utexas.edu/sysnet page): 1. ssh-keygen -t dsa 2. Now I don't seem to have an .ssh2 directory, so I added a file called identification in my .ssh directory with the line IdKey id_dsa 3. Added a file called authorization in .ssh/ with the following line Key id_dsa.pub 4. ran ssh-agent bash 5. ran ssh-add all of which seemed to have worked properly. The machines I'm trying to ssh to share the same home directory as the machine I'm trying to ssh from. However, when I try and ssh into another machine, it asks for my password. I've looked through several man pages and help pages online, and can't seem to figure out why this doesn't work. Doing this also does not work: 1. ssh-keygen -t dsa 2. cp id_dsa.pub authorized_keys2 And this should also apparently work, but doesn't. Any help, pointers would be much appreciated. -- Shashank G.
