Only allow public/private key authentication ?
Hello,
I would like to know if there is a way to allow only public/private key authentication, and so what is the exact signification of the 'PasswordAuthentication' configuration option. I have disabled the PasswordAuthentication option but my sshd server always asks me for a password and not a passphrase if I don't have the good private key on my client. Thanks if you can , C. Tobini |

Re: Only allow public/private key authentication ?
Hello and thanks for your answer,
I have restarted the service but I'm asked for my password, I fixed 'PasswordAuthentication no' in the /etc/sshd_config file. C. Tobini Richard E.

If you have PAM support enabled in sshd and PAM is configured to allow authentication via password then sshd can also authenticate you via that method. It looks similar to password authentication but it's different at the protocol level. -- Darren Tucker (dtucker at zip.com.au) GPG key 8FF4FA69 / D9A3 86E9 7EEE AF4B B2D4 37C9 C982 80C7 8FF4 FA69 Good judgement comes with experience. Unfortunately, the experience usually comes from bad judgement. |
