Description Morten Mathiasen 2014-06-20 04:42:42 UTC
Description of problem: It is not possible to make authorized_keys setup work by following the guide in the documentation

How reproducible:
Follow the guide on Fedora (I have tested on Fedora 18)

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Create ssh key
2. Change key perm 755
3. Create authorized_keys
4. Change key perm to 644

Actual results:
Is forced to enter password on ssh login

Expected results:
No need to enter password on ssh login

Additional info:
If permissions are changed to 700 and 600 respectively then no password key is required.

Hello

Please see the latest System Administrator's Guide. The chapter has been updated.

For Fedora 21:
