1/ Be sure the access rights of ~/.ssh are 600
2/ start ssh-agent 3/ add the key you created with ssh-add |
Hi,
Also check to see if PermitRootLogin is enabled. This is, seen from a security point of view, a bad idea, but you do need it to solve your problem. PermitRootLogin can be found/set in /etc/ssh/sshd_config Hope this helps. |
If it's on the same machine, avoid creating that security hole; use sudo instead.
