Are there any reasons to get a pubkey denied after you run ssh-copy-id onto your server? I’ve already restarted the sshd service but I still get pubkey denied after I copied my ssh I.D. to my server. I am thinking about just removing all the keys I have on the server and re-adding them but I was hoping someone else may have an idea before I do that. Thanks!
EDIT: OKAY. I fixed it. I appreciate all the help I received. I still really could not figure out what the actual issue is. But I did have some extra ssh keys that I wasn’t using from old machines and after I deleted those and readded my key everything seems to work
I’ll have to check when I get off work. I never have any errors when copying my id so I am not sure why they wouldn’t be there but I will check
Same. I’ve never had it screw up before, but the only thing I can imagine is that something’s not right with the keys.
As an aside, I did recently create a new server, and somehow managed to completely ignore the errors in
ssh-copy-id
. Turns out I forgot to use-m
(to create my home directory) inuseradd
when I went to create my personal account. Oops!
