SSH issues on 10.1

Thanks for the suggestions.

I was having the same "built against...[ssl stuff]" problems after upgrading to 10.1. I do recall messing around with ssl and ssh because I was having trouble connecting to a certain remote host (the problem was on their end - I could could connect to several other without problem).

Anyway, I removed all the ssh stuff from /usr/local/bin and was able to connect. Now I can't seem to authenticate!

I get either:
"Permission denied, please try again" from one remote host
or
"Authenticated with partial success.
Permission denied, please try again." from another.

I only have one openssl:
[dhcppc1:/usr/local/bin] tony% which openssl
/usr/bin/openssl

I hesitate to remove /usr/local/bin from my PATH because I have a bunch of MySQL apps in there.

there are files in /etc
called
ssh_config
sshd_config

the latter controls the server which is what you connect to when you are remote.


Some line should appear like this, but I don't know how it would become changed if you don't know about it.

#PAMAuthenticationViaKbdInt yes

also try...
man ssh
man sshd
man ssh-keygen
(especially for the previous poster)
your keys were generated with the wrong ??? ssl???

anyway, these are complicated issues but it is better to learn from the manuals as they are important....

see the previously mentioned config files for
names of your keys.

the keys should be in an invisible file called
.ssh in your home directory...

if you really don't have another machine which can ssh in your local net, you will go crazy...


sorry to not be able to provide more support. But it is better than giving wrong information...
 
I can only report my anecdotal experience, but after running Apple's "Security Update 10-19-01" my ssh problems seem to be fixed.

Just to review - I was unable to connect to _some_ remote hosts via ssh after I had updated OS X to 10.1. I had modified my ssl and ssh configuration previous to the upgrade.

It is possible of course, that both the hosts to which I could not connect may have changed something on their end.

The Security Update is a Software Update available from Apple via the Software Update System Preferences panel.
