Starting today, for no obvious reason, when I ssh out from my (one and only remaining) slink box, I get this message twice:
Warning: cannot stat authentication directory /tmp/ssh-itz after that, the connection proceeds successfully. I notice there's a directory /tmp/ssh-blahblah (or similar:) on the destination box, owned by me and permed 700, but of course no /tmp/ssh-itz. The destination machines are potatoes :-) This does not happen for connections in the other direction, nor did I ever notice it before in this direction. -- Ian Zimmerman, Oakland, California, U.S.A.
