I have a client who we migrated to a new 8202-E4C a few weeks ago.
They do a daily scheduled file transfer to an outside vendor using SFTP
with key authentication.
Since the server migration, the SFTP has been failing.
Initially the SFTP standard error output reported the following messages:
Bad owner or permissions on /home/PERFRM/.ssh/config
Connection closed
I have reset the authority on that file using the following command:
chmod 600 /home/PERFRM/.ssh/config
The SFTP standard error output now shows the following messages:
Permission denied, please try again.
Permission denied, please try again.
Permission denied (password).
Connection closed
So I'm wondering now if the server migration has impacted the key
authentication in some way (other than the permissions of the config file).
The destination server still has the user's public key. But could it be
seeing the user as NOT the authenticated user now because the connection is
coming from a different server.
In other words, does the server in some way become part of the SFTP key
authentication?
If so, will generating a new key for the user on the new server and
providing it to the outside vendor solve the problem?
Thanks for any input.
Scott
