> fix ssh for servers with PubkeyAuthentication only
> --------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: LIBCLOUD-461
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LIBCLOUD-461
> Project: Libcloud
> Issue Type: Bug
> Reporter: Markos Gogoulos
>
> On libcloud/compute/ssh.py we specify password OR public key to ssh to a
> cloud server. This results in deploy_node to fail to ssh to a server where it
> allows PubkeyAuthentication only (example HPCloud servers).
> However there's no need to specify only one of the two, both can be
> specified. Paramiko's authentication is attempted in the following order of
> priority:
> (from paramiko/paramiko/client.py)
> public key(s) passed,
> any key found through an SSH agent,
> any "id_rsa" or "id_dsa" key discoverable in ~/.ssh/,
> plain username/password auth, if a password was given
> I've tried the patch on several backends (including HPCloud) and it worked
> without issues
