Yep, the -vvv option on the remote ssh and taking a look at /var/log/messages and /var/log/secure should provide details about why failure happens. Perhaps the sshd_config file is set to only allow public key connections? That would certainly make a password attempt fail (and is how I have my server setup for remote connections versus local network connections where I do allow passwords). -- users mailing list users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/users Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines Have a question?
