I setup the keys between 2 servers, but my user account has no password specified for it (never set one up on the account for security reasons). When I try to SSH to the server, SSH prompts for a password that doesn't exist (so I can never connect successfully).
Note: 'passwd -d Rynok' removes... (3 Replies)

Recently I have been playing with password ageing and the usage of ssh keys. I have found that if usePAM yes (default) is set in the /etc/ssh/sshd_config file then any password ageing and inactiivity can adversely affect a client with ssh keys.
For example:
Set PASS_MAX_DAYS to 60 in... (5 Replies)

NAME
libgnome-keyring - gnome keyring library.
DESCRIPTION
GNOME Keyring is a system to store passwords and other sensitive data in a standardized way across all GNOME applications.
A keyring stores a collection of encrypted passwords and encrypted information about those passwords. A user can have multiple keyrings,
each for a different use, but there is a default one, called 'login'. There is also a special 'session' keyring which is not stored on disk
and goes away when you log out.
When a user logs into GNOME, the keyrings are locked and a master keyring password has to be provided in order to unlock each of them.
GNOME Keyring includes an SSH agent which integrates with the gnome-keyring and user login for its passwords. It can also use the main
X.509 private key store.
GNOME Keyring will set the SSH_AUTH_SOCK environment variable when it starts up.
The id_rsa and id_dsa files in ~/.ssh are automatically usable through the SSH agent without first 'loading' them. Other X.509 private keys
marked with the 'ssh-authentication' purpose are also usable.
Additional SSH keys can be manually loaded and managed via the ssh-add command.
If you use another SSH agent(such as the ssh-agent included with OpenSSH), you may want to disable the SSH agent in GNOME Keyring to pre-
vent ssh from using it instead of your prefered SSH agent. You can set /apps/gnome-keyring/daemon-components/ssh gconf key to false. This
prevents the SSH component of gnome-keyring from starting up when the user logs in.
