Thank you. I removed the ".ssh" directory as you suggested. I'm enclosing a copy of "ssh -v" (the file "ssh_minus_v.margaret") created right after the ".ssh" directory was removed from the "margaret" home path. The file created using "ssh -vvv" (called "ssh_minus_vvv.margaret") is also enclosed. I created that one while the RSA and DSA information files were still in their directories. As you can see, both of those files terminate with an exit status of "-1".. meaning something went wrong. So the fact that the ".ssh" directories exists and has files, doesn't seem to make a difference. However, what exactly is wrong, I don't understand from the debug output. Some of the things that I would have thought were things to look at seem to be OK. I am also enclosing a file that ends in exit status 0 (called "ssh_minus_vvv.irene"). This is an attempt to "ssh" from the account "irene" to the HP "irene". For some reason when I login as "irene" on the PC running Fedora Core 2, and ssh to the machine "irene", everything works OK. But when I login as "margaret" (another NIS account) from the same exact PC, I get the exit status = -1 problems.. I thought the debug comment: "Rhosts Authentication disabled, originating port will not be trusted" would be some sort of error. But as you can see if you compare the files, the "ssh_mius_vvv.irene" file has that at the beginning, yet finishes with exit status of 0... And everything works fine. Any help or comments appreciated. ip -----Original Message----- From: Satish Balay [mailto:balay@xxxxxxxxxxx] Sent: Tuesday, January 18, 2005 11:58 AM To: For users of Fedora Core releases Subject: Re: ssh on Fedora Core 2 and HP-UX 11.11 On Tue, 18 Jan 2005, Paradis, Irene (TRAC) wrote: > "Connection to irene closed" > (and "irene" is the name of the HP box). Hmm. You might want to debug this with 'ssh -vvv'. I would think 'password' authentication should work by default. > "Warning: No xauth data: using fake authentication data for X11 > forwarding. I guess this warning just means DISPLAY on the PC is not set correctly - hece X11Forwarding can't be done properly.

Not sure what exactly you set up you've done. The files generated by 'ssh-keygen' should be in ~/.ssh dir (so you can remove them if you like) You might also want to check 'openssh faq' esp http://www.openssh.com/faq.html#3.14 Satish -- fedora-list mailing list fedora-list@xxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: http://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list
