[Sheflug] More ssh RSA hassles.

["Barrie Bremner" <nospam [at] barriebremner.com>]

After reinstalling much of my system a few days back, I'm now having
problems using RSA or DSA authentication with ssh.

The last time I had problems was just a file permissions problem, but
as far as I can see, I've got it right this time.

All the machines I'm attempting to connect to haven't changed at all
(my other local boxen and cs.csoft.net where my website is hosted).

I've tried generating new key pairs with ssh-keygen and copied them
across, but it makes no difference.

I can post ssh config files if be. I have:

RhostsRSAAuthentication no
RSAAuthentication yes

in my /etc/ssh/sshd_config file (as well as the usual default lines) and

   RhostsAuthentication no
   RhostsRSAAuthentication no
   RSAAuthentication yes
   PasswordAuthentication yes
   FallBackToRsh no
   UseRsh no

in my /etc/ssh/ssh_config file

~/.ssh/*.pub files are permission 644 and non .pub files (identity and
id_dsa) are 600.

On the remote machine(s) ~/.ssh/authorized_keys is mode 644.

Does anyone have any ideas?
