SSH Keys

[Kevin Lyles]

I would like to set up ssh keys for password-less access to host220
from my machine, but the administrator seems to have disabled them. I
can't view the sshd config to verify this for sure, since the
permissions are set to 600 (owned by root). Most likely all the admin
would have to do is add (or uncomment) a line saying
"PubkeyAuthentication yes" to /etc/ssh/sshd_config. Can we get this?

I use secure shell keys for my account, and it works just fine....
Double check your install just to be sure. Make sure your home
directory and .ssh directory are not readable by outsiders; that often
causes the key to fail.

That fixed it, as long as the "cs440ta" group donesn't need access to
my home folder. Thanks!
