I am using an ssh pub key on two remote servers to allow ssh session without authentication. Both servers have the same id_rsa.pub copied from the host into the remote servers ~user/.ssh/authorized_keys. There is no passphrase for this key either.
The problem is that I am able to ssh into one remote server without a password prompt while the other server attempts to read the rsa key, but continues onto the password prompt.
Both remote servers have identical ssh_config, sshd_config, authorized_keys, and known_hosts files. V. OpenSSH_3.4p1, SSH protocols 1.5/2.0, OpenSS
I followed the directions under 10.10.6, but nothing seems to have happened. When I try logging in, nothing has changed. I still login using my username/password combination.
I've already created the keyparis, but why isn't this working?
What I'm looking to do is to put the pub keypair... (2 Replies)
We have tested successfully OPENssh with RSA & PAM, now we have to implement this in all of our environment. In order to do this we want to integrate all the OPEN ssh packages and RSA software into one package and then just do a pkgadd of the created package and it should take care of everthing. My...

My PAM module seems to work right but it fails in authentication. Althought it can't authenticate, the session module works and the software who uses it executes well.
For example, when I login through "gdm" using pam to authenticate against an ldap server
/var/log/auth.log shows

Hi all,
Basic Requirement:
To SFTP large files (usually 10GB). We use webMethods 6.1.2 (installed on Unix) as the orchstrator and make underlying Unix system calls to do the processing.
That is, if we have to SFTP a large file - webMethods will invoke a Perl script on the underlying Unix... (2 Replies)
Hi.
I'm trying to automate access to an Amazon Web Services machine instance. What this means is that my script is trying to use ssh to connect to a new server every time. I know the RSA fingerprint of my new server through an out-of-band channel.
I would like to capture the RSA fingerprint... (0 Replies)
Hello Friends,
I know this issue has been raised many times and hence I tried every resolution provided in the forum before I posted this issue again.
My Password-less RSA authentication was working fine for quite some time. Whenever the remote server password used to change I used to re-do... (5 Replies)

We have RSA SecureID softtoken key generator on my Windows machine.
It generates new keys every 1 minute.
Any HPUX server (be it ServerD or ServerP) requires my ID and the randomly generated RSA SecureID softtoken key from my Windows to login.
I login to ServerD.
Then I run a script... (0 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_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_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.
