SSH Between Host Not Working

Latest response

I have server A and server B and can ssh from server A to server B if I'm logged in as the user whose keys have been set up

But, I can't do user@serverB from server A logged in as another user

and I can't do the following to allow the user to ssh to the local server

-bash-4.2$ ssh-copy-id jenkins@localhost
/bin/ssh-copy-id: INFO: attempting to log in with the new key(s), to filter out any that are already installed
/bin/ssh-copy-id: INFO: 1 key(s) remain to be installed -- if you are prompted now it is to install the new keys
Permission denied (publickey,gssapi-keyex,gssapi-with-mic).

I'm lost

Did you check the ownership/permissions of the jenkins home and .ssh directories?

Check if "PasswordAuthentication" is set to "no" in /etc/ssh/sshd_config on the remote system if so, then change it to "yes" and restart sshd service and then check. By default this is set to "yes".

[root@ansible-host ~]# grep ^PasswordAuthentication /etc/ssh/sshd_config 
PasswordAuthentication yes
