    Hi there,

    I'd like to connect from one jailed shelluser to another with ssh keys.

    I did create the id_rsa and id_rsa.pub as root in the .ssh dir of shelluser one and changed the ownership to the shelluser and its group.
    I copied the content of the id_rsa.pub to the authorized_keys of shelluser two.
    I tried to connect from one to the other, but still keeps asking for the password.
    Am I missing something? Do I need to put the files somewhere else?

    Thanks, yal

    No need to create any files manually, ispconfig has a field for th keys and using that ensures that they are in the right path and have the right permissions.

    Ok, I can add public keys to the shellusers.
    But i cant't find a way to create the keypair for the shellusers.
    How do I create a rsa keypair for a jailed shell?
    I can log in with keys from my local machine, but I can't figure out how to log in from one jail shell to another.
    edit: i can log in with ssh when i manually specify the id_rsa key file by ssh -i ~/.ssh/id_rsa. So the location of the keys is wrong. Where do I put them?
