Re: SSH keys question

You should check the perms on the dirs, ssh will not allow it use the keys if they are too permissive. So I would check starting at /home

All,

I have 3 servers. All 3 are CentOS 5.5. All 3 have identical /etc/ssh/sshd_config files. I used ssh-keygen (with no arguments) to generate keys with no password. I then added all 3 id_rsa.pub keys to the authorized_keys file.

With this set up, I should be able to ssh between all 3 boxes without needing a password. The problem is that one of the servers keeps asking for a password even with the keys set up. 

servera --> serverb   No password

serverb --> servera   No password

servera --> serverc   Password

serverc --> servera   No password

serverb --> serverc   Password

serverc --> serverb   No password

If they are all identical from an ssh standpoint (at least the authorized_keys, /etc/sshd_config, and UID for the user on all 3 hosts), why will serverc not play nicely with the other 2> Is there something else I should be checking?

Thanks,

John
