ssh works well but when you try to copy a file via scp you get this error
no hostkey alg
Go on your server and check if you have /etc/ssh/ssh_host_rsa_key and /etc/ssh/ssh_host_dsa_key files, if not, generate them
ssh-keygen -t rsa -f /etc/ssh/ssh_host_rsa_key ssh-keygen -t dsa -f /etc/ssh/ssh_host_dsa_key
After installing a container with lxc I wasn’t able to connect via ssh to my container, I get the following message :
root@ns313:~# ssh 10.50.10.10 Read from socket failed: Connection reset by peer
Network works normally, I can ping, hotst both direction and I can get pages from apache’s container from the dom0.
I tried to connect to ssh from container, in local and I get the same error.
root@container:/etc/ssh#ssh 10.50.10.10 -l root Read from socket failed: Connection reset by peer
Strange, first time ssh doesn’t work on any machine.
Try restart sshd
root@container:/etc/ssh# /etc/init.d/ssh restart Could not load host key: /etc/ssh/ssh_host_rsa_key Could not load host key: /etc/ssh/ssh_host_dsa_key Could not load host key: /etc/ssh/ssh_host_ecdsa_key [....] Restarting OpenBSD Secure Shell server: sshdCould not load host key: /etc/ssh/ssh_host_rsa_key Could not load host key: /etc/ssh/ssh_host_dsa_key Could not load host key: /etc/ssh/ssh_host_ecdsa_key . ok
SSH keys are missing, to fix it, run this command :
root@container:/etc/ssh# ssh-keygen -t ecdsa -f /etc/ssh/ssh_host_ecdsa_key -N ''
A classic hack for linux users, connect via ssh without password.
First, on your client, generate public key
ssh-key-gen -t rsa
keep ~/.ssh/id_rsa by default.
Copy public key (~/.ssh/id_rsa.pub) from your client to the file ~/.ssh/authorized_keys2 on the server with the ssh-copy-id binary.
Then edit your ~/.ssh/config file on client side to custom your params:
Host dev HostName dev.domain.com Port 22 User root
Finaly, you can add an alias in your ~/.bashrc
alias dev='ssh dev'
Now, to launche a ssh connection, just run
dev
