2012-01-24 Thread Rich Shepard
My secure log watch summary keeps telling me there's a problem with ownership or permissions on ~/.ssh. Currently it's 755 and owned by me. I've not changed it so I don't know why I'm suddenly getting this error. The exact message is: Authentication refused: bad ownership or modes for
