Can't connect to remote machine via SSH - error: Permission denied (publickey,keyboard-interactive)
I've been trying to connect to the remote machine with the new second admin account but password was rejected. I'm very certain that I have typed the right password for the second admin account. After three attempts, I received the following error:
$ Permission denied (publickey,keyboard-interactive).
There was a moment when it ask me about some Key. I processed to type yes. Which after three failed login attempts, I've have yet to see the Key option.
I just keep getting the above error. I think it wanted me to type in the current admin user (first admin) that was logged in. If that is the case, how can I add my second admin account to login in (via SSH) while first admin is logged in (GUI)?
I'v created the second admin user as so...
sudo dscl . create /Users/$USERNAME
sudo dscl . create /Users/$USERNAME UniqueID 405
sudo dscl . create /Users/$USERNAME PrimaryGroupID 80
sudo dscl . create /Users/$USERNAME NFSHomeDirectory /private/var/$USERNAME
sudo dscl . create /Users/$USERNAME UserShell /bin/bash
sudo dscl . passwd /Users/$USERNAME "$PASSWORD"
sudo dscl . append /Groups/admin GroupMembership $USERNAME
...and enabled Remote Login with the following settings...
sudo systemsetup -setremotelogin on
sudo launchctl load -w /System/Library/LaunchDaemons/ssh.plist > /dev/null 2>&1
macos bash ssh administrator

you probably have the key in the .ssh/knownhosts file on your local machine.
vim .ssh/knownhosts
then find that IP address (of the server), remove that key, save and quit, then try to ssh again.
the problem is that your knownhost key may be linking you to the original user, now the new one.....
