I'm trying to ssh from one server to another. They are identical servers
running Linux, and cobalt 550's. and the same version of ssh. I am currently
using rsa keys (for ssh2). I have used the defaults, so the public file is
id_rsa.pub. Now I want to ssh from server 2 to 1, so I have appended server
1's public key on to server 2's authorized_keys file (I have also tried
authorized_key2). The perms set for the authorized_keys(2) file was 600. And
the key take one line. But when I try to ssh in it still prompts for a
password. I have cut some of the dead weight out of the debug, I have spent
over 6 hours (over the past two days) trying to get this to work.
I have both of these connecting to another server (server 3) and it works
fine (server 3 is running "OpenSSH_3.4p1, SSH protocols 1.5/2.0, OpenSSL
0x0090605f").
Where as these two servers (server 1 & 2) are ("OpenSSH_2.9p2, SSH
protocols 1.5/2.0, OpenSSL 0x0090600f").

Any help would be apprciated.
