Public bug reported: I expect that when using key based authentication I do $ssh user@0.0.0.0 I expect to be asked for the key password. Instead I get Agent admitted failure to sign using the key. Permission denied (publickey).
Using SSH_AUTH_SOCK=0 solves the problem allowing me to be asked for the key password. What should happen is that I should not have to specify SSH_AUTH_SOCK=0 on the CLI, I should only have to type $ user@0.0.0.0 ProblemType: Bug DistroRelease: Ubuntu 14.04 Package: openssh-client 1:6.6p1-2ubuntu2 ProcVersionSignature: Ubuntu 3.13.0-37.64-generic 3.13.11.7 Uname: Linux 3.13.0-37-generic i686 NonfreeKernelModules: wl ApportVersion: 2.14.1-0ubuntu3.5 Architecture: i386 CurrentDesktop: Unity Date: Sat Oct 11 07:19:08 2014 EcryptfsInUse: Yes InstallationDate: Installed on 2014-09-08 (33 days ago) InstallationMedia: Ubuntu 14.04.1 LTS "Trusty Tahr" - Release i386 (20140722.2) ProcEnviron: LANGUAGE=en_US PATH=(custom, no user) XDG_RUNTIME_DIR=<set> LANG=en_US.UTF-8 SHELL=/bin/bash RelatedPackageVersions: ssh-askpass N/A libpam-ssh N/A keychain N/A ssh-askpass-gnome 1:6.6p1-2ubuntu2 SSHClientVersion: OpenSSH_6.6.1p1 Ubuntu-2ubuntu2, OpenSSL 1.0.1f 6 Jan 2014 SourcePackage: openssh UpgradeStatus: No upgrade log present (probably fresh install) ** Affects: openssh (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Tags: apport-bug i386 trusty -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1380084 Title: SSH client requires SSH_AUTH_SOCK=0 will not work without it, can't use key auth without SSH_AUTH_SOCK=0 To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/openssh/+bug/1380084/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
