I have a problem getting key authentication to work with one remote user (git), even though it works fine for the remote user "root". The remote file .ssh/authorized_keys is identical for both users - I cp'ed it from the root account to the git home dir. On local machine (OS X, by the way) I have: $ cd $ ls -l .ssh -rw------- 1 jussihirvi staff 668 Aug 24 16:13 id_rsa (the rest is omitted) On remote machine (as root): $ cd $ ls -ld .ssh drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 4096 Feb 11 17:45 .ssh $ ls -l .ssh total 8 -rw------- 1 root root 1768 Feb 11 17:45 authorized_keys -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 631 Feb 11 12:30 known_hosts On remote machine (as git): $ cd $ ls -ld .ssh drwxr-xr-x 2 git git 4096 Feb 12 11:15 .ssh $ ls -l .ssh total 8 -rw------- 1 git git 1768 Feb 12 10:52 authorized_keys -rw-r--r-- 1 git git 631 Feb 12 11:05 known_hosts When, on local machine, I do: $ ssh root@remotehost I get in without a password. But when I do $ ssh git@remotehost I will be asked for a password. What should I check? - Jussi _______________________________________________ CentOS mailing list CentOS@xxxxxxxxxx http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos
