Dear Linux Gurus,
In a bit of a pickle at the moment.
We experienced multiple power cuts on Monday just gone resulting in power less (UPS's ran out of juice!) to 1 client machine and 5 CFD cluster servers (all bare metal). Since then, one primary user account has loss the ability to remotely connect to any of the 5 servers using passwordless SSH.
Steps I've taken:
Regenerated new private and public keys using ssh-keygen (following official RH instructions:
https://access.redhat.com/solutions/9194)
Copied over new public key to servers using ssh-copy-id and manually.
Client is Centos 6.9 and Servers are RHEL 6.9.
The /home directory is an NFS mount point on the client and servers are from a different server (so all the same) - would this effect proceedings? Been set up like this before with no issues.
I'm an intermediate user of Linux but this has completely stumped me.
Any help or suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
TIA and cheers!
Edit: Here is a -v verbose output from the client trying to connect to one server:
