SSH Authentication Issue

Paul Adams_6 — Thu, 30 Mar 2006 13:51:48 GMT

Has anyone else been able to get SSH working on Windows Server 2003 SP1 SIM 5 SP4 and a Windows Server 2003 SP1 target system and OpenSSH 1.5.4.0?

Here is what I get when connecting in a command prompt and then in SIM CLI Tools:

[COMMAND]

C:\Documents and Settings\ADMIN_ID>ssh TargetServerName
DOMAIN\ADMIN_ID@TargetServerName's password:

Dear Paul,

I faced the same issue.
It was solved when I changed the task owner to be the server administrator.
Most probably the account you are binding this task to does not have enough prevelage on the SIM server.
