Hi there! I want to set up a ssh-connection from my linux-machine to a SUN, running SunOS 5.6., I use ssh 2.0.13. and have no root privileges for the sun. The man pages say, that password identification may not work in this case, so i tried to set up a connection with host and public key. I have allowed publickey and hostbased authentifications, copied the client public key to the host and set up the identification and authorization files; additionally i copied the key to knownhosts and set up the .shosts-file. I generated all keys without blank passphrase. Connecting from my linux-host to another linux machine, (with root-started sshd2) works fine (passwd or publickey-based) But none of these two methods of authenticating works with the sun. (i tried to log in with the same account as I startet sshd2 - the only way this can work) ----------------- sshd2 says: bash-2.02$ debug: Sshd2/sshd2.c:653/new_connection_callback: Wrapping stream with ssh_server_wrap... debug: ssh_server_wrap: creating transport protocol debug: ssh_server_wrap: creating userauth protocol debug: Sshd2/sshd2.c:663/new_connection_callback: done. debug: new_connection_callback returning debug: Sshd2/sshd2.c:301/auth_policy_proc: login to account <AC_NAME> not allowed or account non-existent. debug: Exiting event loop ------ the ssh2-client says: debug: ssh_client_wrap: creating transport protocol debug: ssh_client_wrap: creating userauth protocol debug: entering event loop debug: Host key found from the database. debug: client_disconnect: No further authentication methods available. Disconnected; authentication error (No further authentication methods available.). ------- Any suggestions that could help despite of getting root-privileges? Thanks in advance Harald.
