ssh not allowing password login if keys are an option
It seems that the new setup with Lubuntu won't allow me to log in via
SSH using a password if using a key is also an option. If I connect to
the server in LXTerminal
ssh -l lars xx.yy.zz.aa
then a graphical dialog box pops up and wants me to enter the passphrase
(I think) for the private key: "Enter password to unlock private key"
If I hit cancel, then ssh quits with this error:
Received disconnect from xx.yy.zz.aa: 2: Too
many authentication failures for lars
The same dialog box pops up even after I've already used ssh-add to load
the key into the agent.
Speaking of ssh-add, that seems broken, too. If I enter "ssh-add -l" to
see which key I've loaded, it seems to list all the keys I have in .ssh
instead of what has been loaded into the agent.
Is anyone else seeing these two behaviors?
