I want to thank everyone for contributing
to solving the implementation problem I was having. It seems in the end
it was an “operator” problem. To summarize the results: - regarding sshd port change – uncomment
port, and change the port number entry in /etc/ssh/sshd_config. Restart the
sshd service. Update /etc/sysconfig/iptables to reflect the port number
change from 22 to the port number specified in / etc/ssh/sshd_config, then
restart iptables service. - PasswordAuthentication no – this requires an
additional option to be change, “ChallengeResponseAuthentication no”.
Having made both of these changes, causes the login to abort is a valid ssh key
is not specified. Again many thanks to everyone. From: Karl Kobata
[mailto:Karl.Kobata@xxxxxxxxxxx] I have installed cento 5.3. I enabled the ssh
deamon. I have found that 2 options that I normally use does respond as I
expect. Has anyone else had similar problems with the following options
in sshd_config: - Port 6666 – if I set the port to anything other than
22 (default), using ssh –p6666 name@servername, does not work. Yet
if I leave keep the default, then ssh name@servername allows me to login. - PasswordAuthentication no – if I set this option to
“no” (default is “yes”), and my ssh key is either
missing or in error, I will be prompted for user system login password.
If this is set to “no”, it should not allow me to login if I have
not ssh key specified or in error. Has anyone else run into this problem. Is there a workaround? What are my options?
Please help. |
