Running into this on intrepid. I have two keys loaded into my gnome- keyring agent, one DSA, one RSA. Pubkey auth using the DSA is key is failing with the "Agent admitted failure" message, but RSA succeeds immediately after.
Ran an strace, and noticed that it's writing the following to syslog: Feb 12 20:13:12 timlaptop gnome-keyring-daemon[6368]: signing of the data failed: Invalid object -- ssh Agent admitted failure to sign using the key on big endian machines https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/201786 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Server Team, which is subscribed to openssh in ubuntu. -- Ubuntu-server-bugs mailing list Ubuntu-server-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-server-bugs
