Hello,

I have a Script which uses Rsync with SSH Authentication to copy files from one server to another. It is a cronjob which executes every hour. The servers uses the DSA public Keys to Authenticate each other. So No passwd is asked while the cronjob is executed.

Suddenly from couple of hours it started asking for the passwd from the cronjob and hence cannot rsync.

Could anyone suggest me where should i look what could be wrong. I checked from the prompt to connect to the same server but even then it asks for passwd.

I did a search in Google but it tell me how to setup the Auth.

Pls put me on correct path.

Regards,

If this is still a problem, and if using the key still asks for a passwd, remove the key and generate a new passwordless one. It would be good to investigate *who* changed it first though.
