| Post subject: | can't ssh in |
Hi - I've got my new linode setup - but I cannot ssh in from my home workstation. I can ping the IP. IPTables isn't running (yet) sshd is up and running. I can use the ajax ssh web client just fine. Anytime I try ssh'ing in though, I get this error message: debug1: No more authentication methods to try. Permission denied (publickey). why isn't it letting me use password auth? I have PasswordAuthentication = yes in my sshd_config in fact, I can ssh -vv root@localhost just fine using the ajax console - and it say's " debug1: Authentications that can continue: publickey,password " So why localhost let's me do password, remote doesn't? Thanks. Tyrrvk |

Do you have password authentication disabled on your workstation? Usually check ~/.ssh/config or /etc/ssh_config |

Usually check ~/.ssh/config or /etc/ssh_config Doesn't look like it. what's really weird - is I couldn't log in with iTerm2. So I tried the default mac shell program "terminal" and it worked - I could ssh in. Closed out - and tried logging in again, and now I am not able to? |

Maybe you have a lot of ssh keys stored, in terminal run ssh-add -l if it prints a bunch of entries then your machine will be trying every one until the server rejects it for too many attempts. |
