Right, I knew that. What I don't understand is why I can't get root
access without a password any more. Any thoughts?
Check that the key from the server's /home/backuppc/.ssh directory is
correct in /root/.ssh/authorized_keys2 on the client. Also be sure
that the authorized_key2 file and all directories above it are
only accessible by root.
As far as I can tell everything is just as it should be. I'm stumped.
Did you try passwordless login with the -v option? This should indicate any
errors. Errors are also logged to a log file, but I don't recall which one.
C-ya,
