passwordless login via ssh fails for some users

edited Aug 28, 2018 11:29AM in Oracle Solaris System Administration (MOSC) 1 commentAnswered

We're setting up ssh passwordless login for some users from server1 to server2 (and vice versa).
Even though the configuration of ssh for the users has been done by using the same procedure, passwordless login works for some users, but it doesn't work for others.

I have verified the keys, permissions, etc. , and all looks ok to me.

Is there something that I'm overlooking ? Any clue why passwordless login works for some users but fails for others (despite being setup the same way) ?

What has basically been done:

- generate a key pair for the user
- Copy the public key created at server1 for that user, to the authorized_keys file of that user on server2

Howdy, Stranger!
