Hi all,
Having a problem trying to SSH from Sierra terminal to another computer running Linux (a version of Debian).
I want to log in using the username and password of an account on the remote computer.
When I try to connect, I get the message "Permission denied (publickey).".
I tried various ways to force the terminal to use a username and password but without success, including:
ssh -o PreferredAuthentications=password -o PubkeyAuthentication=no pi@192.168.0.100 -vvv
In all cases, it never asks for a password and it eventually gives up with the message: debug1: No more authentication methods to try.
On the remote computer, I checked auth.log and see only this:
Connection closed by <mac's ip address> [preauth]
This is what I see when I run the ssh command using -vvv:
