Everyone has probably seen this question a 1,000 times by now, but here goes. I need to get a trusted host arrangement between a number of machines. Configurations for several machines went find, but one is giving me trouble. I copied the ssh_config; sshd_config from a successful implementation to the problem box.
MACHINE - Redhat 7.2 - openssh-2.9p2-9 client's /etc/ssh/ssh_config includes: <commented lines> Host statamatic ForwardAgent yes ForwardX11 yes FallBackToRsh no Protocol 2,1 RhostsAuthentication yes RhostsRSAAuthentication yes DSAAuthentication yes IdentityFile ~/.ssh/identity # Be paranoid by default Host * ForwardAgent no ForwardX11 yes FallBackToRsh no Protocol 2,1 RhostsAuthentication yes RhostsRSAAuthentication yes DSAAuthentication yes PERMISSIONS: -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 1261 Nov 30 08:35 ssh_config -rw------- 1 root root 1195 Nov 27 10:53 sshd_config When I: ssh -v -v -v statamatic I get: debug1: Reading configuration data /etc/ssh/ssh_config debug1: Applying options for statamatic debug1: Applying options for * debug1: Seeding random number generator debug1: Rhosts Authentication disabled, originating port will not be trusted. debug1: restore_uid MACHINE - Redhat 7.2 - openssh-2.9p2-9 Okay...so what is leading to "Rhosts Authentication disabled." It will authenticate on passphrase/password. Is there another config file somewhere or what? Thanks in advance. Host machine sshd_config --- probably not important since problem seems to occur before this, nevertheless, greps of the more important lines: RhostsAuthentication yes RhostsRSAAuthentication yes DSAAuthentication yes RSAAuthentication yes PasswordAuthentication yes #SkeyAuthentication no #KerberosAuthentication no HostKey /etc/ssh/ssh_host_key #IgnoreUserKnownHosts yes IgnoreRhosts no # Uncomment if you don't trust ~/.ssh/known_hosts for RhostsRSAAuthentication RhostsAuthentication yes # For this to work you will also need host keys in /etc/ssh_known_hosts RhostsRSAAuthentication yes ========================================= Michaell Taylor, PhD _______________________________________________ Redhat-list mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://listman.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list
