Reg: Use of Net::SFTP to achieve Public key authentication in HP-UX 11i

Chinna Meiyappan T — Tue, 18 Mar 2008 14:15:07 GMT

Anybody is using Net::SFTP to transfer files using Key based authentication?

So far i could establish a password based authentication sftp connection using Net::SFTP.

Any help is really appreciated.

When I use Net::SFTP to do the same without using the password parameter, it is giving Permission denied at /opt/perl_32/lib/site_perl/5.8.8/Net/SFTP.pm line 62.

Regards,
Chinna

Shalom,

1) Your error appears to be an problem with SHLIB_PATH or environment in your code. Not going to find much help debugging your code here.

2) Permissions and ownership of the home directory, the .ssh folder and the files inside are critical.

Example

[root@cleartux ~]# ll -d /root/
8 drwxr-xr-x 26 root root 4096 Mar 18 17:23 /root/
[root@cleartux ~]# ll -d .ssh
4 drwx------ 2 root root 4096 May 8 2006 .ssh
[root@cleartux ~]# ll .ssh/
total 36
4 drwx------ 2 root root 4096 May 8 2006 .
8 drwxr-xr-x 26 root root 4096 Mar 18 17:23 ..
4 -rw------- 1 root root 810 Aug 27 2007 authorized_keys
4 -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 1200 Feb 16 2006 authorized_keys2
4 -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 600 Dec 15 2005 authorized_keys.id_dsa.pub
4 -rw------- 1 root root 668 Dec 14 2005 id_dsa
4 -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 603 Dec 14 2005 id_dsa.pub
4 -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 3912 Dec 1 23:44 known_hosts

Those permissions/ownership work.
