Yesterday I upgraded my desktop box to jaunty, and now I'm getting this
error when trying to connect to a remote server through ssh with
password authentication:
Received disconnect from {ip address}: 2: Too many authentication failures for
{username}
lost connection
That meaning that I have a lot of different keys in ~/.ssh and openssh client
in jaunty is trying all of them instead of previous defaults (id_rsa, id_dsa
and identity). To get things back to normal I must create a new subdir
~/.ssh/new
and move there all my non-default keys (and updating ~/.ssh/config accordingly).
Please, can anyone confirm that this new behaviour with default keys is
intended? I've been unable to find this change documented anywhere.
