Error: Eclipse- RSE - keyboard interactive authentication

Post by publicGenome »

Hi Team,
After several here and there, I have managed to successfully install RSE in Eclipse PDT. :D
Now, comes another hurdle. When I try to connect to my remote server, I am getting this error/dialog box:
Keyboard interactive authentication for myUSERNAME@localhost
I followed the steps provided at:

http://askubuntu.com/questions/466549/b ... -directory

A post here says:
You have to add the public key of your computer to the authorized_keys file of the computer you want to access using SSH Keys!

So I added .pub file's content to remote computer's file.

This couldn't help me login to the remote server. Seems I'm missing another important thing.
My ssh config file on local machine has:
cat /etc/ssh_config | grep "PasswordAuthentication"
# PasswordAuthentication yes
Details about Eclipse, and Machine:
Eclipse Luna
Mac OSX 10.9

Please guide.

Have you checked the SSH config on the remote machine? Does it allow RSA key authentication? Also, editing files directly on your remote server is not generally a good idea. Careful with that.
