sshd can't access user files
...y with 0750

directory thanks to his group ownership.
After installing OpenSSH 2.3.0p1 on this system we noticed that public
key authentication only worked for root. After doing some debugging we

"temporarily_use_uid" to access files in the home directory of the

~/.ssh/authorized_keys2 as target_user.system (on AIX), not as
target_user.group as it should, a...

Unfortunately auth_parse_options() is only called by user_dsa_key_allowed() which is
in turn only called by ssh2_auth_pubkey() which due to this if statement in

authenticated = ssh2_auth_none(pw);
} else if (strcmp(method, &qu...
