[Fedora-directory-users] ssh login fail

[Steven Jones]

B*gger me....

# jonesst1, People, vuw.ac.nz
dn: uid=jonesst1, ou=People, dc=vuw,dc=ac,dc=nz
uid: jonesst1
givenName: steven
objectClass: top
objectClass: person
objectClass: organizationalPerson
objectClass: inetorgperson
objectClass: posixAccount
sn: jones
cn: steven jones
uidNumber: 500
gidNumber: 500
homeDirectory: /home/jonesst1
loginShell: /bin/bash

I must have had multiple issues and initially I created accounts with a
posix user but later as I had re-done fully it sooo many times, I
stopped bothering....not realising it could have been an issue.

SO I just setup the posix account settings (as shown above) and ssh
login now works....

****slaps self repeatedly*****

So under the ssh howtos there needs to be at least some pre-requsits ie
full posix setup....

Thanks....

Your account does not have any posixAccount attributes defined.
