Hello,
I've read the archives and found problems similar to mine, but with no clear
solution to the problem.
I have installed openssh-2.2.0p1.tar.gz on both a SUSE 6.0 and a RedHat 6.2
machines
Additionally I manually installed the PAM control file as /etc/pam.d/sshd on
the RedHat machine.
I have the public dsa keys for each machine installed.
I can successfully ssh without password prompt from RedHat to SUSE (scp
works too)
When I try to go from SUSE to RedHat, I get prompted for password (correct
password gets me in)
I think the problem is with PAM on RedHat, and the 2 lines from the sshd
debug log below.
debug: Starting up PAM with username "rpm"
Failed none for rpm from 181.70.1.197 port 953 ssh2
Any help would be very much appreciated.
Tony Mueller
P.S.
Below is the in sshd in debug on RedHat as I try to get in from SUSE
...
