[Freeipa-users] [freeipa-users] errors when trying to add public SSH key to user

[Armstrong, Kenneth Lawrence]

I do not believe that it is damaged.  I have tried this out three times now (deleting the key files between each attempt).

Are you sure the ssh public key file is not damaged? The following sequence of commands works for me (verified now):



[root at vm-154 tbabej]# ssh-keygen

Generating public/private rsa key pair.

Enter file in which to save the key (/root/.ssh/id_rsa): /home/tbabej/test_rsa

[..]



[root at vm-154 tbabej]# ipa user-mod admin --sshpubkey "$(cat test_rsa.pub)"

---------------------

Modified user "admin"

---------------------

User login: admin

Last name: Administrator

Home directory: /home/admin

Login shell: /bin/bash

[..]
