Dear people,
I was wondering if I was doing anything obviously wrong here. I was
trying to follow correct procedure as I understood it.
I was trying to use key-based authentication with ssh to connect to
the host sunny.isis.unc.edu, on which I have the account faheem. In my
.ssh directory on sunny I placed my public key, calling it
authorized_keys as is required by ssh. However, the debugging output
from ssh at my end says:
faheem ~>ssh -v sunny.isis.unc.edu

But I *did* make

world-readable.

What is going on? Am I making some mistake, or it is a problem with
the remote server?
Thanks, Faheem Mitha.
