I do not know what you mean by "right permission" since each type=20 of file can have different permissions. If you meant the permissions in my=20 ~/.ssh directory they are: bash-2.05b$ ll total 234 drwx------ 2 ivan ivan 512 Nov 19 22:05 . drwxr-xr-x 28 ivan ivan 198656 Nov 20 21:04 .. -rw-r--r-- 1 ivan ivan 595 Nov 19 22:05 authorized_keys -rw------- 1 ivan ivan 668 Nov 19 22:00 id_dsa -rw-r--r-- 1 ivan ivan 595 Nov 19 22:00 id_dsa.pub -rw-r--r-- 1 ivan ivan 1817 Nov 20 14:20 known_hosts Another interesting thing that I missed before in var/log/messages is : .... sshd[45489]: error: PAM: success for ivan from ........ .... while in /var/log/auth.log I see: sshd[45489]: Failed keyboard-interactive/pam for ivan from ... port 56269 ssh2 Thanks for your help, Ivan --------- This may be a stretch but I know that SSH can be quite finicky about directory permissions. Try setting your .ssh directory to 0700. I think the go+x on the directory itself may be causing you problems. Mike
