Re: Re[2]: Help with SFTP

You need to transfer the public key ( id_rsa.pub )  to the server you are g=
oing to connect to:
=95 Transfer id_rsa.pub to the server.
Ways to transfer the id_rsa.pub file:
=95 Use traditional FTP.
=95 Use Windows Networking (/QNTC or NetServer)
=95 Use iNav to get the key to your PC, then transfer in E-mail or similar.

Then you need to add the public key to the user's authorized_keys file

=95 Add the contents of id_rsa.pub to the end of the authorized_keys file.
=95 If you are running the server, add id_rsa.pub to that user=92s authoriz=
ed keys file, from within PASE type:
cat /tmp/id_rsa.pub >> /home/user-id/.ssh/authorized_keys

Then test with ssh -T userid@server


Best regards



Stefan

Hi Stefan .. be patient
I have re-done the steps sohwed at :
https://www.ibm.com/support/pages/configuring-ibm-i-ssh-sftp-and-scp-clients
-use-public-key-authentication
The olny step that i didn't  do,  was this:  "Send the public key that was
generated in Step 6b to the SSH server administrator" ; it could be this the
problem that cause the error "Permission denied
(publickey,gssapi-keyex,gssapi-with-mic,password)"  ??
Thanks in advance

>>You said you followed this document:
https://www.ibm.com/support/pages/configuring-ibm-i-ssh-sftp-and-scp-clients
-use-public-key-authentication
>>If so, you have generated rsa, ecdsa and ed25519 key pairs.
>>The log output shows that the server tries authentication with an rsa.pub
key. The private key that you need to supply should likely be a key named
id_rsa.
