If I try to login to a fedora 23 virtual machine as root, I get rejected because of "too many authentication failures" (or something like that, I don't remember the precise wording). I'm running an agent, but none of the keys in the agent would allow a root login so I expect it to fallback to a password prompt, but I get the failure instead. When I then try with this: ssh -o PreferredAuthentications=keyboard-interactive,password I do indeed get a password prompt and can login. I suspect I'm suffering from the effects of the changes in f23 to remove various crypto algorithms and ssh1 support, etc. But I can't figure out what the heck is going on. Any ideas? I'd love to not have to dig up the silly long option every time I want to login as root :-). -- users mailing list users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/users Fedora Code of Conduct: http://fedoraproject.org/code-of-conduct Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines Have a question?
