Passwordless SSH/SFTP OpenVMS to Openvms

[ahdroo]

Hi guys

Need help, I've tried configuring passwordless SFTP/SSH from Openvms to Openvms and it seems to be working for the first time, but after i logout from the client and relogin, its not working again

Example
=======
test:test> ssh_agent
%DCL-S-SPAWNED, process SMSC_29632 spawned
test:test> ssh_add
Adding identity: /sys$sysdevice/test/ssh2/ID_RSA_2048_A.pub
Adding identity: /sys$sysdevice/test/ssh2/ID_RSA_2048_B.pub
Adding identity: /sys$sysdevice/test/ssh2/ID_RSA_2048_C.pub
Adding identity: /sys$sysdevice/test/ssh2/ID_RSA_2048_D.pub
Adding identity: /sys$sysdevice/test/ssh2/ID_RSA_2048_E.pub
Adding identity: /sys$sysdevice/test/ssh2/ID_RSA_2048_F.pub
Adding identity: /sys$sysdevice/test/ssh2/ID_RSA_2048_G.pub
test:test>


###########
test:test> ssh test2
Authentication successful.

test:test2>


After i logout from test system and relogin, and try to ssh to test2, it will ask me for password again

Help are highly appreciated

Thank you
Andrew

Basic info? "TCPIP SHOW VERSION"?

How many key file sets do you need? Why?

Do they all have non-null passphrases? Why?

What's in your "[.ssh2]identification" file?

> [...] and try to ssh to test2, [...]

As usual, it might be more helpful to see the
actual commands and their output, rather than
only a vague description.

Have you tried adding "-v" to your "ssh"
command?

Thank you for the link, I've managed to setup it up correctly

I'm glad that you got it to work, but that
explanation conveys about as much useful
information as the original question. That
is, practically none.
