Hello I am using OpenSSH_3.8.1p1, OpenSSL 0.9.7i 14 Oct 2005 to connect from a Powerbook running Mac OS X (10.4.6) to a FreeBSD 5.4 machine and a Linux (Debian, I think) machine. I have been using ssh-agent for some time now to enable passwordless logins, but today it suddenly stopped working. Nothing has changed on my end (at least as far as I am aware). Today I keep getting asked for my passphrase. Here are what I think are relevant snippets from 'ssh -vvv' (first to the Linux machine) debug1: Host 'webhost' is known and matches the RSA host key. debug1: Found key in /Users/luomat/.ssh/known_hosts:30 debug1: ssh_rsa_verify: signature correct debug1: SSH2_MSG_NEWKEYS sent debug1: expecting SSH2_MSG_NEWKEYS debug1: SSH2_MSG_NEWKEYS received debug1: SSH2_MSG_SERVICE_REQUEST sent debug1: SSH2_MSG_SERVICE_ACCEPT received debug1: Authentications that can continue: publickey,password,keyboard-interactive debug1: Next authentication method: publickey debug1: Offering public key: /Users/luomat/.ssh/identity debug1: Server accepts key: pkalg ssh-rsa blen 149 debug1: PEM_read_PrivateKey failed debug1: read PEM private key done: type <unknown> Enter passphrase for key '/Users/luomat/.ssh/identity': and to the FreeBSD machine: debug1: Host 'compaq' is known and matches the DSA host key. debug1: Found key in /Users/luomat/.ssh/known_hosts:13 debug1: ssh_dss_verify: signature correct debug1: SSH2_MSG_NEWKEYS sent debug1: expecting SSH2_MSG_NEWKEYS debug1: SSH2_MSG_NEWKEYS received debug1: SSH2_MSG_SERVICE_REQUEST sent debug1: SSH2_MSG_SERVICE_ACCEPT received debug1: Authentications that can continue: publickey,keyboard-interactive debug1: Next authentication method: publickey debug1: Offering public key: /Users/luomat/.ssh/identity debug1: Authentications that can continue: publickey,keyboard-interactive debug1: Offering public key: /Users/luomat/.ssh/id_rsa debug1: Authentications that can continue: publickey,keyboard-interactive debug1: Offering public key: /Users/luomat/.ssh/id_dsa debug1: Server accepts key: pkalg ssh-dss blen 433 debug1: PEM_read_PrivateKey failed debug1: read PEM private key done: type <unknown> Enter passphrase for key '/Users/luomat/.ssh/id_dsa': Any help appreciated! I'm not used to debugging ssh, if I left out some useful detail, please let me know. I have restarted ssh-agent to no avail. TjL
