Same goes for the changes to the ssh configuration. If you start a new instance your configuration settings will be gone if you don't change them on the global file system, use prepared .disk or if you defined a separate configuration file in the instance directory.<br>

<br>I run two machines on the same collision domain, let's say a server and a client.<br>The server runs sshd, I can access it from the client with the following command<br> ssh root@server_address<br>Then I am requested the password and access is granted if the password is correct.<br>
<br>I would like now to configure public key authentication. I have generated RSA keys on the client (ssh-keygen -t rsa) and I have transferred the public key on the server (ssh-copy-id -i /root/id_rsa.pub root@server_address).<br>
On the server, the /etc/ssh/sshd_config file is fulfilled with "PubkeyAuthentication yes" and "RSAAuthentication yes".<br><br>However, when I try to connect from client to server, I am still requested the password for root@server_address...<br>
<br>As this process works on physical hosts running Debian or Ubuntu, I guess it is a Netkit configuration problem. Any idea ?<br><br>Thanks in advance.<br><br>--<br><font color="#888888">OM<br></font></span></div></div><br>
