Hi,
> What about 'PasswordAuthentication no' in sshd_config?
This is not my problem.
We want to disable root's using telnet and rlogin with password
(and allow RSA-User-Key Authentication)
telnet doesn't read sshd_config ... ;-)

We need some way to allow ssh without enabling telnet/rlogin!
(Disabling port 22 altogether is not a possible solution - not yet)

Circa 2001-May-17 15:16:34 +0200 dixit "Petersen, Jörg":

: As far as I understand:
: rlogind allows login with password
: rshd only allows access via .rhosts/hosts.equiv ! (Which is easy to remove
: ;-)
: 
: The difference is the possible use of a password.
: 
: (If you say 'rsh foreignhost' without command,
: you actually use rlogind !)
: 
: With the current openssh-Code I've got no possibility
: to disallow any remote root-login with password while
: allowing RSA-Authenticated SSH-Login to root.

What about 'PasswordAuthentication no' in sshd_config?
