I am changing the login authentication method from password to keyboard interactive for security purposes. I know this option is kind of add-on for ssh client programs; which explains the best info about option is in this link: User Authentication with Keyboard-Interactive
One of the servers is AIX; and althoguh I have done many combination it keeps giving me the error saying unable to authenticate using methods which includes keyboard-interactive.
1) The server is AIX5.3
2) ssh -v
OpenSSH_4.3p2, OpenSSL 0.9.7l 28 Sep 2006
3) no LDAP
4) no xml configuration file for ssh like ssh-server-config.xml; so no LAM
5) $OpenBSD: sshd_config,v 1.73
My configuration is basically as follows;
Code:
PermitRootLogin no
PasswordAuthentication no
ChallengeResponseAuthentication yes
UsePAM yes
X11Forwarding yes
If there is anyone who can help me, it is appreciated. There may be a version supporting keyboard-interactive or a parameter that doesn't show up in man for sshd_config. Maybe, I should change ssh_config file which is all commented. There is /etc/pam.conf without any line with ssh-server-g3. Do u have any recommendation?

ssh-copy-id
SSH-COPY-ID(1) General Commands Manual SSH-COPY-ID(1)NAME
ssh-copy-id - install your public key in a remote machine's authorized_keys
SYNOPSIS
ssh-copy-id [-i [identity_file]] [user@]machine
DESCRIPTION
ssh-copy-id is a script that uses ssh to log into a remote machine (presumably using a login password, so password authentication should be
enabled, unless you've done some clever use of multiple identities)
It also changes the permissions of the remote user's home, ~/.ssh, and ~/.ssh/authorized_keys to remove group writability (which would oth-
erwise prevent you from logging in, if the remote sshd has StrictModes set in its configuration).
If the -i option is given then the identity file (defaults to ~/.ssh/id_rsa.pub) is used, regardless of whether there are any keys in your
ssh-agent. Otherwise, if this:
ssh-add -L
provides any output, it uses that in preference to the identity file.
If the -i option is used, or the ssh-add produced no output, then it uses the contents of the identity file. Once it has one or more fin-
gerprints (by whatever means) it uses ssh to append them to ~/.ssh/authorized_keys on the remote machine (creating the file, and directory,
if necessary)
