SSH password-less login issue between linux and solaris
Hello Gurus,
I am trying to set up bidirectional password-less login between a linux and a Solaris. The way I am doing is very simple, which is creating pub/priv key pairs on each host and add the pub key to each other's authorized_keys file:
ssh-keygen -t rsa (I tried dsa, and it didn't work aslo)
Surprisingly enough, having done the same set up on both machines, only linux->solaris trusted connection works while solaris->linux does not
Here is the verbose logs I got when I try to ssh to linux from the solaris:
Code:
debug1: Next authentication method: publickey
debug1: Trying private key: /home/nyfcgstg/.ssh/identity
debug3: no such identity: /home/nyfcgstg/.ssh/identity
debug1: Offering public key: /home/nyfcgstg/.ssh/id_rsa
debug3: send_pubkey_test
debug2: we sent a publickey packet, wait for reply
debug1: Server accepts key: pkalg ssh-rsa blen 149
debug2: input_userauth_pk_ok: fp 80:58:a9:ba:b7:f8:5d:21:16:bd:4c:f8:d1:e0:04:dc
debug3: sign_and_send_pubkey
debug1: read PEM private key done: type RSA
Connection closed by xx.xx.xx.xxx
debug1: Calling cleanup 0x41afc(0x0)
After reading the private key the connection just closed by the Solaris.
The same pub key of linux is accepted by other Linux boxes so I am thinking this can be a cross-platform issue?

Any pointers will be appreciated.

Hi,
I would like to login from a Sun server running ssh:
Sun_SSH_1.1, SSH protocols 1.5/2.0, OpenSSL 0x0090704f
to
ssh: SSH Secure Shell 3.0.1 on sparc-sun-solaris2.6
How can I achieve this?
Thanks a million in advance (1 Reply)
There is two server, server A and server B. In server A, I would like to login ssh to server B without typing password. (no need for ssh2)
Therefore, I do the followings:
Server A:
>cd ~
>mkdir .ssh
>ssh-keygen -t dsa -f .ssh/id_dsa
Then copy the file id_dsa.pub to Server B
Server B:... (2 Replies)
Hi Gurus
I have a few Sol 5.9 servers and i have enabled password less authentication between them for my user ID. Often i have found that when my password has expired,the login fails.
Resetting my password reenables the keys.
Do i need to do something to avoid this scenario or is this... (2 Replies)
Hi All,
I am facing issue in setting up passwordless login through ssh on two Solaris-10 boxes. user-id ravrwa from server tsapiq04-zrwdq01 should be able to login to server tsbrit03 as cpsuserq, which is not happening. I am not sure where is the problem, while keys are already all set. Here is... (14 Replies)

Hello,
I can't seem to get the password less login to work on one of my SLES 11 servers. My ssh agent lets me login to all my other servers, which are Solaris 10, RHEL 5, and SLES 11 servers. Some servers mount my home directory and others don't.
The server that I'm having an issue with doesn't... (7 Replies)

ssh-keysign
SSH-KEYSIGN(8) BSD System Manager's Manual SSH-KEYSIGN(8)NAME
ssh-keysign -- ssh helper program for host-based authentication
SYNOPSIS
ssh-keysign
DESCRIPTION
ssh-keysign is used by ssh(1) to access the local host keys and generate the digital signature required during host-based authentication with
SSH protocol version 2.
ssh-keysign is disabled by default and can only be enabled in the global client configuration file /etc/ssh/ssh_config by setting
EnableSSHKeysign to ``yes''.
ssh-keysign is not intended to be invoked by the user, but from ssh(1). See ssh(1) and sshd(8) for more information about host-based authen-
tication.
FILES
/etc/ssh/ssh_config
Controls whether ssh-keysign is enabled.
/etc/ssh/ssh_host_dsa_key
/etc/ssh/ssh_host_ecdsa_key
/etc/ssh/ssh_host_ed25519_key
/etc/ssh/ssh_host_rsa_key
These files contain the private parts of the host keys used to generate the digital signature. They should be owned by root, read-
able only by root, and not accessible to others. Since they are readable only by root, ssh-keysign must be set-uid root if host-
based authentication is used.
/etc/ssh/ssh_host_dsa_key-cert.pub
/etc/ssh/ssh_host_ecdsa_key-cert.pub
/etc/ssh/ssh_host_ed25519_key-cert.pub
/etc/ssh/ssh_host_rsa_key-cert.pub
If these files exist they are assumed to contain public certificate information corresponding with the private keys above.
SEE ALSO ssh(1), ssh-keygen(1), ssh_config(5), sshd(8)HISTORY
ssh-keysign first appeared in OpenBSD 3.2.
