10 Thanks for the pointer. According to the manual the default for ssh
11 PreferredAuthentications is:
12 hostbased,publickey,keyboard-interactive,password
13 So it should work but for some reason or another Knoppix is not
14 defaulting to publickey; even though I have public key
15 in /knoppix/.ssh/authorized_keys
16
17 Adding to /etc/ssh/ssh_config
18 PreferredAuthentications publickey
19 has no effect. Do I need to log-out and log-in in order to take it
20 effect?
