Trying to connect using a spotlight on unix connection.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Product:
Spotlight on Unix 6.0.0.444
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Message:
Datasource error in connection nameoftheconnection: Failed to connect to server.
An SSH configuration setting on the server is preventing full connection.
An SSH configuration setting on the customerrâ€s server is preventing full connection.
Verify the following:
1. verify that you are able to connect with PuTTY with the Keyboard interactive authentication method turned off.
2. Check the PasswordAuthentication field. If it is set to No then that might be causing the problem. In that case, change it to Yes , restart the ssh daemon and try to connect again using Spotlight.
Â
3. Try to use Public/private keys to login to Spotlight. This could be a workaround and also offers greater security than PasswordAuthentication.
