Hello,
I try to establish an ssh connection between two
systems, running HP UX 10.2 and SunOs 5.5.1,
respectively.
Version 2.0.13 of ssh is installed on both
of them.
I create private / public keys on both systems,
send the public key of one system to the other and
create the corresponding identification /
authorization files.
Connection from HP to Sun worked right from the
beginning, without problems.
However, connection from Sun to HP refuses to
work. The message I get is:
Disconnected; authentication error (No further
authentication methods available).
The file /etc/sshd2_config on HP contains the
line:
AllowedAuthentications publickey,password
but not publickey neither password authentication
are even tried!
(For example, when I connect from HP to Sun, if
publickey fails - p.ex. no HP-public key on Sun,
or no authorization file on Sun - ssh switches to
password authentication, asking me the pass on
Sun, as it should do).
I attach the following two files:
1) /etc/sshd2_config on HP (identical to
/etc/ssh2/sshd2_config on Sun)
2) result of the command
"Sun> ssh2 -v username@HP" on Sun.
Thank you in advance for your help.
