When trying to ssh to a machine using a public key, we got the following error:
1 2 | ssh 'tux@192.168.1.10'sign_and_send_pubkey: signing failed for RSA "/home/tux/.ssh/id_rsa" from agent: agent refused operation |
The problem was with the local .ssh folder which had wrong permissions set. To fix the above problem, we issued the following commands:
1 2 | chmod 700 ~/.ssh;chmod 600 ~/.ssh/*; |
