Re: [Testbed-admins] Users Unable to Log onto OPS

["Korrie, Donna M CTR USAF AFMC AFRL/RYRD" <Donna.Korrie.ctr@rl.af.mil>]

Good Morning,

This is happening to all users.
In the past we were able to log onto OPS with username and password, the
same uname and pw that is used to log onto the GUI My Emulab Web page.
Looking within the GIU Web page under the user's profile, there are two
SSH keys listed, one that is all numbers and one that starts with
ssh-rsa with the combination of number, upper and lower case letters.
The users home directories /users/username, are accessible and have the
correct permissions.

What else should I be looking for to fix this.

Thank you,
Donna

By default, we don't allow password authentication on ops, they have to
have a public key.  Assuming that the user(s) had previously uploaded a
public key through the GUI and it just now has stopped working (i.e.,
they
are now prompted for a password rather than just being logged in), then
either
their authorized_keys file in their ~/.ssh directory got clobbered, or
their home directory has become inaccessible.  The latter is unlikely on
ops, since that is where their homedirs are physically (this is more
often
a problem on nodes, where their homedirs are NFS mounted).

So for a user in question, make sure they have a .ssh/authorized_keys
file
and that it contains more than just the Emulab-generated pubkey.
