ssh to da2 successful, but still prompts for password

[charizzo]

I can successfully ssh to da2, but I'm still prompted for my netid password. I thought the point for using the ssh keys was to get around entering in a password? Or is it not? @audrism

Thanks!

I have populated your .ssh/authorized_keys in the docker container with your key and no password should be necessary if the .ssh on your laptop/desktop is set up properly:
has only read permissions by you.

What is the output of:
ls -ld ~/.ssh ~/.ssh/*
on your laptop/desktop?

What is the content of ~/.ssh/config?

Weirdly enough, I just reran the "chmod -R og-rwx ~/.ssh" command and it now works without password. Sometimes it goes like that I suppose.

Thanks!
