I've got a number of users on a server (call it server A), and I'm
able to use no-password, publickey authentication for all but one of
them (call it foo), and of course this is the user that I NEED to
use... Server A is configured identically to servers B & C, and foo
experiences the same problem on those servers as well, and again, no
other user seems to have this issue. As far as I can tell, all the
users' .ssh directories on all the servers (including those for foo)
are configured identically in terms of permission. I've included the
-vvv debug output below... I've been stumped on this for a few days,
so any input would be much appreciated!
