Ok. So I am trying to setup a passwordless ssh by doing (on the server):
1. ssh-keygen -t dsa
2. copying id_rsa.pub to authorized_keys
Of course, it doesn't work. I am working on a big project, and I am the only person for whom this method hasn't worked (well, it worked for a while but somehow I broke it).
I revised several troubleshooting posts (and unsuccessfully tried them all). So, I ran the verbose ssh -vv user@server:
Quote:
If you get a line like this, not containing "publickey":
debug1: Authentications that can continue: password,keyboard-interactive
|
I do get "publickey" here.
Quote:
If you don't get a line like:
debug1: try pubkey: /home/user/.ssh/id_dsa
Then check "ssh_config" on the client and if it exists, remove "PubkeyAuthentication no" if it exists.

I don't get this line, but I do not have access to the ssh_config. And as I previously stated, all other users have been able to setup passwordless ssh'ing on the same server.

If you still don't see that line then make sure that "~/.ssh/id_dsa" exists on the client.
If you get a line like:
debug2: we sent a publickey packet, wait for reply
Check that "~/.ssh/authorized_keys" exists on the server and contains a line the same as "~/.ssh/id_dsa.pub" on the client.

Yes, yes. All necessary files exist in both server and client.
Thanks for your help.
