I bet you were asked to confirm a new host key... ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are the assignee for the bug, or are watching the assignee.

[Bug 471] Misleading error message if /dev/tty permissions wrong
http://bugzilla.mindrot.org/show_bug.cgi?id=471 ------- Additional Comments From ssh-bugzilla at veggiechinese.net 2003-01-20 05:45 ------- True - if the key is present already, I get: Permission denied, please try again. Permission denied, please try again. Permission denied (publickey,password,keyboard-interactive). It still is quite confusing to have it immediately say "Host key verification failed." - I don't know if it's possible to make the error clearer though. ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are the assignee for the bug, or are watching the assignee.
