I recently applied some PTFs and had to redo some authorities.
You can try
chmod 755 /home/<user directory>
chmod 755 /home/<user directory>/.ssh
chmod 600 /home/<user directory>/.ssh/authorized_keys

Subject: Back for another VS Code setup

I can connect with iACS SSH Terminal to my IBM i. VS code fails immediately.
I've placed the key in my home/user/.ssh, added it authorized.keys, code page 437. I have all authorizations turned on for that file now.
Are there any logs I can look at on IBM i? Copilot offered to analyze my vs code logs and showed these errors:
-What happened?
The SSH connection was established and you were prompted for a password.
Authentication succeeded, but after the "ready" message, the connection hung and timed out after about 17 seconds.
I don't think I should be prompted for a password. The customer box is V7R3. I'm off to check if any PTF's required.
Any suggestions appreciated.
Thank you, Art
