Server refused our key

2008-12-11 01:06

Hi
I have installed OpenSSH for Windows 3.8.1 on a Windows 2000 server. And followed the instructions as per he documents provide. When I create public and private key using PuTTYgen and paste the public key in. ssh folder with rights as mentioned (i.e 700) and the public key in authorized_keys with rights 644.
When I try to acess using the public and private key using PuTTY, I get error "server refused our key" with the error as below

Re: server refused our key

Are you able to login with password at least?

Yes, I am able to login with the password but the problem arises when I use the public and private key. It refuses the key and accepts the password.

You said you used PuTTYgen. Did you convert the key from PuTTY format to OpenSSH format before copying it into .ssh?

What do the auth logs on the server say?

What you provided are the client logs. The question is why the server is refusing your key. To understand that, it would be helpful to have the server logs. You would have to look at /var/log/auth.log on the server (or something like that... it depends on where the server is configured to log that data).

How to work with the auth.log as no auth.log file is created. How to resolve this issue? My sshd_config file is as below. Kindly help.

server refused our key

Hi
when I install OpenSSH 3.8 on Windows XP, it works with the public key authentication without any error, but when I install on Windows 2003, it gives an error below in the log.

Authenticating with public key "rsa-key-20110930"

I also have the same issue

2009-10-30 15:24

Error:

Server refused our key
Server refused public key

Same code is working from server, but not from client.
If I pass the password, then it is working from client also.
It is not working when I use private key.

update to sshd_config

2022-05-05 06:45

I got the same error message, perhaps due to another reason. Here is the solution I found:

For WinSCP <= 5.19.x:
On the server (Linux) side you'll need to add this line to /etc/ssh/sshd_config:

PubkeyAcceptedAlgorithms +ssh-rsa

This is supposed to be fixed in WinSCP 5.20.
See the official WinSCP post at:
Issue 1952 – Support rsa-sha2-256 and rsa-sha2-512 SSH public key algorithms

Note: I'm running an ArchLinux server, but this should be the same for Fedora or Debian based systems.
