Openssh passwordless

[tsuba]

Hello there! I hava a problem: I set up passwordless keys from a Linux RedHat 7.2 to an AIX 4.3.3 with IBM's deployed OpenSSH (3.4p1) and to a Sun Solaris (OpenSSH 3.6.1p1) and I can't make it worn in AIX. In Solaris Box it works fine, but in AIX it simply does not work: It keeps me asking password. Anybody Knows that issue? Openssh 3.4p1 supports passwordless keys? Is there any secret?

Thanks in advance.

Hi

How does your Configuration looks ( on Client/Server )
Send an Output of ssh -vvv <server>

I've been having the very same problem yesterday and today when trying to ssh from Slackware to AIX.
At last I got it to work:
Changed permission of:
/home/myuserid to 750
/home/myuserid/.ssh to 700
And now I'm in without the password prompt.

If this is for the root user, check /etc/ssh/sshd_config for
PermitRootLogin without-password

Hello all.
I solved the problem putting more restrictive permissions on user's home dir. Thanks for all your help!!
