cvsup'd on the 7th, running 4.6-STABLE created dsa keys for root on machine A, put public key on machine B in root's authorized_keys2. If I set PermitRootLogin to 'without-password' in B's sshd_config things work as expected... if I do ssh root@b "date" from A I'm prompted for the passphrase, enter it, get the date output from b. If I set PermitRootLogin to 'forced-commands-only' and try to do the same command I'm prompted for the passphrase, then I am prompted with "password", after 3 bad guess's it then prompts for root@b's password. Is there something else that needs to be done to only allow commands to be executed on machine B? Do I somehow have to specify both without-password and forced-commands-only for PermitRootLogin?
