...putting a key (no need to be the private key) on another password-based host. It that true? I do not think so. I would name that as an "important OpenSSH daemon security bug". That is because I think it is not true. co-worker wrote: > You cannot distinguish passphrased keys from passphraseless ones. I think the OpenSSH daemon will take care to ask for a key passphrase before using a key to open an encrypted channel. A ssh key which requires a ssh passphrase to be usable can not be used to open a ssh connection if such ssh passphrase is not provided, as it is part of the encryption a...

I have an account where I have DSA key setup with a passphrase. I am trying to write a script to ssh over to another Unix server, without having to type in the passphrase and have ssh read the passphrase from either a file or pass it in from the command line. Is there a way to do something like this? I know that we can it so I don't need to enter a passphrase but we don't want to do

...on unexpectedly closed (0 bytes received so far) [sender] rsync error: error in rsync protocol data stream (code 12) at io.c(359) However, if I run exactly the same command, but with a normal user as the remote user instead of root, the rsync works as expected. Both root and the normal user have passphraseless keys set. the reason why I want the rsync to run with root as the remote user is that I want the UID and GID of the copied files to be preserved on the remote machine (which has users and UIDs quite different from the local machine). What could I be doing wrong which stops it working with ro...

I don't think the signed key helps in my particular case (I may be wrong, if so please correct me). I'm working on a management

Hi.. I've looked through all the documentation and searched numerous websites and I can't find any viable current way to cluster ssh-agents. The functionality gap I see is to allow a situation where 2 ssh-agents are running on 2 different trusted machines. If one of those machines goes down passwordless logins should be allowed to continue through the backup ssh-agent. And when the

This is a bit of a leading question, but is there a limitation as far as length/size of facts on a node? I have a need to perform one way sync of user accounts (non-Puppet managed users) on many pairs of servers. Thus far, it''s been done with scripts from primary -> backup server, and has been problematic. I''d like to create a fact that returns user:password_hash pairs,

Hallo, I wanted to avoid typing-in my password every occasion I remotely logged-on to a server. I created my SSH keys and copied the public part to the server and renamed it authorized_keys. My command line is: ssh root at xxxxxx.com -p 1234 The output shows the logging-on routine wants 3 types of authentication. Surely one successful authentication is sufficient ?

I have 5 windows workstations and 1 computer running freebsd 4.4 I want to install rsync on the freebsd computer so I can use it to backup some files/documents on my windows workstations. I want rsync to run automatically every 6pm mon-sat. I wanna ask if there is someone in this list who can give me guidelines on how i can do this. And another question I have is do I need to install samba? i
