My fault. It seems that the sshd doesn't recognize the keys. Check your /etc/ssh/sshd_config. It should contain these lines: Protocol 2 # makes sure the more recent version 2 of ssh is used RSAAuthentication yes # activates auth via RSA PubkeyAuthentication yes # activates auth with keyfiles instead of passwords AuthorizedKeysFile .ssh/authorized_keys Of course, you can omit the comments. IIRC, I had to uncomment these lines when installing my systems to activate key authorization. - -- Dirk Raeder I prefer encrypted and signed messages.
