OpenBSD 3.7 GENERIC#0 i386
OpenSSH_4.1, OpenSSL 0.9.7d
Doing public authentication for a user with example home directory:
/var/www/home/myhomedir
if there is no public read permissions for home directory
example home is set 0751 rwxrwx--x or even 1711 or 1751 the daemon fails
reading the file in ~/.ssh/authorized__keys even if the dir .ssh is
chmod 755 and the file has world read permissions.
The public authentication fails with the error permission denied to read
the above file in /var/log/authlog and ssh requests a password.
Can u please tell me why Openssh needs read permissions to home + home
dir other than x to read a specified world readable file?
Any workaround or an answer to this?
