For some reason, my SSH (openssh-4.5_p1-r1) refuses to remember any hosts I connect to, and even if I keep connecting to the same machine over and over, it still wants me to OK the RSA fingerprint manually.
Here's the verbose output when I try to connect to a known machine: ssh -v XXXXXX.xxxxxx.xxx OpenSSH_4.5p1, OpenSSL 0.9.8d 28 Sep 2006 debug1: Reading configuration data /etc/ssh/ssh_config debug1: Connecting to XXXXXX.xxxxxx.xxx [xxx.xxx.xx.xx] port 22. debug1: Connection established. debug1: identity file /home/myuser/.ssh/identity type -1 debug1: identity file /home/myuser/.ssh/id_rsa type -1 debug1: identity file /home/myuser/.ssh/id_dsa type -1 debug1: Remote protocol version 1.99, remote software version OpenSSH_3.5p1 debug1: match: OpenSSH_3.5p1 pat OpenSSH_3.* debug1: Enabling compatibility mode for protocol 2.0 debug1: Local version string SSH-2.0-OpenSSH_4.5 debug1: SSH2_MSG_KEXINIT sent debug1: SSH2_MSG_KEXINIT received debug1: kex: server->client aes128-cbc hmac-md5 none debug1: kex: client->server aes128-cbc hmac-md5 none debug1: SSH2_MSG_KEX_DH_GEX_REQUEST(1024<1024<8192) sent debug1: expecting SSH2_MSG_KEX_DH_GEX_GROUP debug1: SSH2_MSG_KEX_DH_GEX_INIT sent debug1: expecting SSH2_MSG_KEX_DH_GEX_REPLY The authenticity of host 'XXXXXX.xxxxxx.xxx (xxx.xxx.xx.xx)' can't be established.

When I tried to create a file there manually, it said permission denied. Do I need to be added to some group to fix these permissions? -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list
