Re: Putty client to HMC results in "Access denied" - Side note on HMC Automation

Not sure if any of you are currently doing interaction with the HMC automatically. I have not worked with it much.

However if you're interested in automating your interactions and you're using an SSH connection and open to commercial options I would be happy to show you how you could automate script HMC operations and capture or send the results automatically on a regular basis.

Our Automate software has a built-in SSH client that can be easily scripted with any relevant logic to automate HMC operation and more.

I tried that and it seemed to work fine (thank you). However attempts to repeat it are no longer working. I turn it off each time before attempting to connect.

Rob,

Try disabling "Attempt authentication using Pageant" on
Connection->SSH->Auth

When I log into my HMC using a putty client I always get the following:
login as: hscroot
Access denied
Using keyboard-interactive authentication.
Password:
Then I use the password for hscroot and get right in. I just find this
mildly annoying. However when others cover for me they find it
catastrophic. Not dinging them, they're great at what they normally do
and I appreciate the help. I'm just hoping to find a way to not get the
"Access denied" message.
