SFTP connection using two different users
Hi All

This is regarding an SFTP Password less connection.

I am logged into my local Server1 using username1.
The remote server i have to connect is "Remoteserver1" with the "useriD" provided. I have already exchanged the public key and they are added to the authorized keys in the remote server.The connection to Remoteserver1 is successful

Now my issue comes here:

When I am logged into the same local server1 using a different username say "username2". When I try to login to the same Remoteserver1 using the userID provided, it asks me for a password.

What difference does it make as the local server is the same and nothing changed except a different username?
Will it affect the SFTP connection as it is a different username at my end?

Do i need to create the Keys again for each user?

Please suggest.

GFTP(1) 						      General Commands Manual							   GFTP(1)

NAME

       gftp - file transfer client for *NIX based machines.

SYNOPSIS

       gftp [options] [[proto://][ user : [pass] @] server [: port ][/ directory ]]

DESCRIPTION

       gFTP  is  a file transfer client for *NIX based machines. It currently has a text interface and a GTK+ 1.2/2.x graphical interface. It cur-
       rently supports the FTP, FTPS (control connection only), HTTP, HTTPS, SSH and FSP protocols.

OPTIONS

       You may enter a url on the command line that gFTP will automatically connect to when it starts up.

       --help, -h
	      Display program usage.

       --info Display some information about how gFTP was built. Please send the output of this command when submitting a bug report.

       --version, -v
	      Display the current version of gFTP.

       proto  This specifies the protocol that should be used. It can currently be one of the following options: ftp, ftps, http, https, ssh, fsp,
	      local and bookmark. If omitted, the protocol specified by the default_protocol option will be used.

       user   The username that will be used to log into the remote server. If omitted, your current username will be used for most protocols. For
	      the FTP protocol, the anonymous username will be used.

       pass   The password that will be used to log into the remote server. If omitted, you will be prompted for the password. If  you	are  using
	      the FTP protocol, and the username is anonymous, then your email address will be used as the password.

       server The remote server to connect to.

       port   The  remote port on the server to connect to. If omitted, the default port for the protocol will be used. The port will be looked up
	      in the services(5) file.

       directory
	      The directory to change to once you are connected to the remote server.

FILES

       ~/.gftp/gftprc
	      Per user configuration file. Most of these options can be edited inside gFTP. This file is also commented very well.   ~/.gftp/book-
	      marks
		     Per user bookmarks file.
