Hi all, i am trying to ssh into a remote server without password, i tried the command with the verbose command 'ssh -v -l user1 10.10.10.10'
i have already copied the public key(id_dsa.pub) to both authorized_keys and authorized_keys2.what could be the problem?
On the remote server, i am seeing this error
Update:
Hi all, problem resolved. The home directory permission was set incorrectly.

Hello,
I'm wondering if anyone has a step-by-step instruction set for setting up ssh keys? I've gone through many of the manuals online (most seem to be from the same source) and it's a little bit unclear when the documentation is talking about the server versus the client machine. I'm missing... (1 Reply)
Hi everyone,
i wanted to generate ssh keys so that i can include the public key in the remote sever, so that for subsequent logins, i can do away with the keying in of the password. I consulted the man ssh-keygen man pages. "..Normally each user wishing to use SSH with RSA or DSA... (1 Reply)
Hi All,
I am having knowledge on some basics of ssh and wanted to know what are the public keys and how can we create and implement it in connecting server.
Please provide the information for the above, it would be helpful for me.
Thanks,

Hello,
I could use some help with my ssh keys and agent.
This is the issue. I have 2 different UNIX systems at work. One is the normal Solaris servers with my uid being the same throughout all the servers. I now have a different system for my desktop. A contractor came in and installed some SUN... (0 Replies)

ssh-add
SSH-ADD(1) BSD General Commands Manual SSH-ADD(1)NAME
ssh-add -- adds RSA or DSA identities to the authentication agent
SYNOPSIS
ssh-add [-lLdDxX] [-t life] [file ...]
ssh-add -s reader
ssh-add -e reader
DESCRIPTION
ssh-add adds RSA or DSA identities to the authentication agent, ssh-agent(1). When run without arguments, it adds the files
$HOME/.ssh/id_rsa, $HOME/.ssh/id_dsa and $HOME/.ssh/identity. Alternative file names can be given on the command line. If any file requires
a passphrase, ssh-add asks for the passphrase from the user. The passphrase is read from the user's tty. ssh-add retries the last
passphrase if multiple identity files are given.
The authentication agent must be running and must be an ancestor of the current process for ssh-add to work.
The options are as follows:
-l Lists fingerprints of all identities currently represented by the agent.
-L Lists public key parameters of all identities currently represented by the agent.
-d Instead of adding the identity, removes the identity from the agent.
-D Deletes all identities from the agent.
-x Lock the agent with a password.
-X Unlock the agent.
-t life
Set a maximum lifetime when adding identities to an agent. The lifetime may be specified in seconds or in a time format specified in
sshd(8).
-s reader
Add key in smartcard reader.
-e reader
Remove key in smartcard reader.
FILES
$HOME/.ssh/identity
Contains the protocol version 1 RSA authentication identity of the user.
$HOME/.ssh/id_dsa
Contains the protocol version 2 DSA authentication identity of the user.
$HOME/.ssh/id_rsa
Contains the protocol version 2 RSA authentication identity of the user.
Identity files should not be readable by anyone but the user. Note that ssh-add ignores identity files if they are accessible by others.
ENVIRONMENT
DISPLAY and SSH_ASKPASS
If ssh-add needs a passphrase, it will read the passphrase from the current terminal if it was run from a terminal. If ssh-add does
not have a terminal associated with it but DISPLAY and SSH_ASKPASS are set, it will execute the program specified by SSH_ASKPASS and
open an X11 window to read the passphrase. This is particularly useful when calling ssh-add from a .Xsession or related script.
(Note that on some machines it may be necessary to redirect the input from /dev/null to make this work.)
SSH_AUTH_SOCK
Identifies the path of a unix-domain socket used to communicate with the agent.
DIAGNOSTICS
Exit status is 0 on success, 1 if the specified command fails, and 2 if ssh-add is unable to contact the authentication agent.
