Access denied when utilizing caja-connect-server #1651

Closed pa5tlife closed 2 years ago

pa5tlife commented 2 years ago

Expected behaviour

Logging in to remote server via SFTP should connect like it did before I made this change, but does not.

Actual behaviour

Prompts with window that read "Access was denied" after changing ~/.ssh/config to include the following lines:

Host * IdentitiesOnly=yes

Steps to reproduce the behaviour

Have too many SSH keys or hosts in PC like me, Change ssh config to include above lines and attempt to use caja to connect to remote server. You will be denied.

MATE general version

1.24.1-2 amd64

Package version

1.24.0-1 amd64

Linux Distribution

Debian Bullseye 5.10.0-16-amd64

Have you tried mounting it from the command line? maybe the error comes from the GVFS ssh backend [1]. I don't know if the backend allows the authentication using keys, previously sent via ssh-copy-id.

$ gio mount ssh://host/path

I'm sorry I haven't replied. My issue was that I had multiple keys with the same names. I ended up deleting the redundant ones, and changing all the ssh config back to what I had before adding the line IdentitiesOnly=yes and it is working again like normal.

Not sure exactly what was happening, but I seem to have resolved my issue.
