If I use pubkey auth from e.g.: an Ubuntu 11.04 how can I set the ssh client to use only password auth to a server? (just needed because of testing passwords on a server, where I default log in with key)
I’m not using hosts.allow or hosts.deny, furthermore SSH works from my windows-machine (same laptop, different hard drive) but not my Linux machine.
I read about setting up ssh keys in Linux and have some questions. Correct me if I’m wrong…
We are attempting to speed up the installation of oracle nodes for RAC installation.
this requires that we get ssh installed and configured so that it doesn’t prompt for a password.
Is there a way how you can check what auth method the user which just logged in to an account were using?
I set up my ssh stuff with the help of this guide, and it used to work well (I could run hg push without being asked for a passphrase). What could have happened between then and now, considering that I’m still using the same home directory.
I am trying to auto mount a folder from my raspberry pi (/home/pi/server_folder), to a local folder (/home/my_name/raspberrypi). I can do this with sshfs (auto mount in fstab) when I set up a blank rsa key, but when I try to use an actual key, like 123, the raspberry pi filesystem wont mount. This is pretty obvious, since I have to supply the passphrase, but is there a way to have it ask for the passphrase when I first try to access /home/my_name/raspberrypi, or do something similar to that? Because if someone gets my laptop, they dont need to put a password or anything in to get access to my raspberry pi, if I leave the rsa key blank. I have looked into autofs, and autosshfs, but autosshfs won’t download, and autofs doesn’t explain how to mount with an actual rsa key (well, I haven’t found a guide on how to). I’m using arch Linux, latest version. Here is the fstab entry:
I have set up public key authentication with ssh, but what happens, is that when I first log in, it still asks for a password, any subsequent login (while keeping the first login alive), does not ask for a password. I am not aware of any settings that produce such a behavior. Anybody any ideas why I am prompted for a password the first time?
I’ve got a question that I’ve not been able to find an answer for. I have two computers, both of which run Ubuntu Linux 12.04. I have set up my first computer (“home”) to be able to SSH into my second computer (“remote”) using public/private RSA key authentication.
The issue as exposed here is
