-----END DSA PRIVATE KEY-----
You will have to trust that I...
copied the above key (that which was between the ----BEGIN and -----END
but not including those lines) and pasted into the key section and that
I also went into 'configure -> advanced' and checked the box 'enable SSL
traffic for communication' and I also made sure that...
# grep Pubkey /etc/ssh/sshd_config
PubkeyAuthentication yes
prior to restarting SSHD on the server which happens automatically when
you install freenx.
No change - unable to authenticate user craig though clearly I can
authenticate as user craig from console...
[root at lin-workstation opt]# ssh craig at srv1
craig at srv1's password:
Last login: Mon Jan 23 17:03:14 2006 from localhost.localdomain
[craig at srv1 ~]$
as for the client...
# rpm -q nxclient
nxclient-1.5.0-135
that's on FC-4 though
Thanks - no workee
and by the way...2 things really bother me but since I can't make it
work as it is, I'm not changing them...
1 - there is no /etc/nxserver/node.conf #only node.conf.sample
2 - the pub key I listed above apparently is the one distributed with
the binary and that would seem to be a security issue
