I've done this (well, I'm using ssh2, and I've enabled host-based
authentication according to the man page), and set up a .rhosts file
for root allowing root to connect from the local machine (host2).
Now, at this point, I should be able to secure shell without using a
password, but I'm still getting prompted for one. I'm sure it's
something trivial... Here's the output of ssh -v:
> ssh -v host2
debug: hostname is 'host2'.
debug: Unable to open /root/.ssh2/ssh2_config
debug: connecting to host2...
debug: entering event loop
debug: ssh_client_wrap: creating transport protocol
debug: ssh_client_wrap: creating userauth protocol
debug: Host key found from the database.
debug: Unable to open /root/.ssh2/identification
root's password: ^D
Received signal 2. (no core)
debug: Ssh2AuthHostBasedClient/authc-hostbased.c:329/ssh_client_auth_hostbased:
Child: Execing
ssh-signer...(path: ssh-signer2)
Any ideas?
Thanks,
