Hi,
I am using a remote storage service for backing up our data - we want to have a script run as part of a cron job which would do the backups from our local Linux machine to the service's Linux machine.
I want to use tar and ssh to do this (rather than mounting the disk and using cp) .... (5 Replies)
I am trying to SFTP to a couple sites. One has an RSA-KEY that was sent to me. Currently I am running that manually using WinSCP. I would like to set it up as a CRON process on our Linux host (Sun).
Can I use the rsa-key they sent me in any directory or does it need to be placed in a specific... (2 Replies)
I have set up RSA private and pub keys between "NodeA" and "NodeB"
Everything works fine when I test with a regular user account. However it does not work as root. I followed the same procedure to set up the keys as the root user but I am still prompted for a password. I have verified my... (1 Reply)

I just implemented the MD5 Loadable Password Algorithm on my AIX 5.3
TL 11 systems. I run NIS and authentication is working fine between
AIX boxes. I have one OpenSuse Linux box in NIS and I get a PAM
authentication error when I try to login. If you have an idea on
getting the Linux box... (2 Replies)
I'm a sysadmin trying to help out one of our DBA's setup the RMAN backups (Oracle 11g on rhel5 ) so they can schedule and control them from the OEM grid control. But we want the oracle user to use ssh keys instead of a password. I have the working rsa keys in place for the user but the GUI seems to... (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)

Hello, I have an AIX 6.1 machine and a few months ago i changed the default password algorithm to ssha1 after suggestions of our security department that it is a more secure algorithm to encrypt passwords rather than standard AIX algorithm.

SFTP-SERVER(8) BSD System Manager's Manual SFTP-SERVER(8)NAME
sftp-server -- SFTP server subsystem
SYNOPSIS
sftp-server [-ehR] [-f log_facility] [-l log_level] [-u umask]
DESCRIPTION
sftp-server is a program that speaks the server side of SFTP protocol to stdout and expects client requests from stdin. sftp-server is not
intended to be called directly, but from sshd(8) using the Subsystem option.
Command-line flags to sftp-server should be specified in the Subsystem declaration. See sshd_config(5) for more information.
Valid options are:
-e Causes sftp-server to print logging information to stderr instead of syslog for debugging.
-f log_facility
Specifies the facility code that is used when logging messages from sftp-server. The possible values are: DAEMON, USER, AUTH,
LOCAL0, LOCAL1, LOCAL2, LOCAL3, LOCAL4, LOCAL5, LOCAL6, LOCAL7. The default is AUTH.
-h Displays sftp-server usage information.
-l log_level
Specifies which messages will be logged by sftp-server. The possible values are: QUIET, FATAL, ERROR, INFO, VERBOSE, DEBUG, DEBUG1,
DEBUG2, and DEBUG3. INFO and VERBOSE log transactions that sftp-server performs on behalf of the client. DEBUG and DEBUG1 are
equivalent. DEBUG2 and DEBUG3 each specify higher levels of debugging output. The default is ERROR.
-R Places this instance of sftp-server into a read-only mode. Attempts to open files for writing, as well as other operations that
change the state of the filesystem, will be denied.
-u umask
Sets an explicit umask(2) to be applied to newly-created files and directories, instead of the user's default mask.
For logging to work, sftp-server must be able to access /dev/log. Use of sftp-server in a chroot configuration therefore requires that
syslogd(8) establish a logging socket inside the chroot directory.
