I checked the permissions of .ssh and they are now 700, and I still get asked
my password.
littlecat: Trying RSA authentication with key 'phma@littlecat'
littlecat: Server refused our key.
littlecat: Doing password authentication.
Now the host I'm sshing to is behind a firewall which is doing port forwarding,
and littlecat is the internal name of my IPmasq box, so neither host can look
up the other's name. I may have different results when I go there, as they are
on the same network in 192.168.
When I ssh from neofelis to itself, I still can't get X forwarding to work,
even though it says it's forwarding. I get this:
[phma@neofelis .ssh]$ ssh localhost
Last login: Tue Jun 13 11:37:40 2000 from neofelis
[phma@neofelis phma]$ kwrite
X11 connection rejected because of wrong authentication at Tue Jun 13 21:53:28 2000.
a
Rejected connection at Tue Jun 13 21:53:28 2000: X11 connection from neofelis port 2749
kwrite: Fatal IO error: client killed
[phma@neofelis phma]$
What do I do about that?
