Thanks, I was not aware of that before. some more assumptions I don't think have been confirmed: a) does The OPs _current_ private key match any of the _current_ .ssh/authorized_keys or .ssh/identity or .ssh/id_rsa from the perspective of the client machine? b) can the OP use the _current_ private key to ssh into 127.0.0.1 while logged into either of the machines? i.e. are the keys setup correctly at all? -- Todd Denniston Crane Division, Naval Surface Warfare Center (NSWC Crane) Harnessing the Power of Technology for the Warfighter _______________________________________________ CentOS mailing list CentOS@xxxxxxxxxx http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos
