Which type of key do you use for auth on that host? DSA keys (not host
yet)
is deprecated now (PubkeyAcceptedKeyTypes). Check and confirm that
correct
keys are loaded ssh-add -K, or try to restart ssh agent using different auth socket, f.e in /var/tmp, also check each keyfile by logging in manually.
Thanks! I guess I used dsa and rsa keys. So what kind of keys should I get? Is this change/deprecation detailed anywhere?
Many thanks again! Ranjan
Yes it is detailed in OpenSSH 7.0 release notes. Users should drop DSA and switch to more secure keys. So if you are using DSA for auth on that host, try ssh -o "PubkeyAcceptedKeyTypes ssh-dss" remote.machine
Thanks! I got it going with ecdsa keys. (Thanks to your tip. I would not have been able to figure this out otherwise.)
Best wishes, Ranjan
