Resolving Permissions Error for 'authorized_keys' File

This error typically occurs when the permissions on the authorized_keys
file or its parent directories are not set correctly. To resolve this issue, you can use the following commands to set the appropriate permissions:
chmod 700 /home/<username>/.ssh
chmod 600 /home/<username>/.ssh/authorized_keys
These commands set the correct permissions for the .ssh
directory and the authorized_keys
file. The chmod 700
command ensures that only the owner has read, write, and execute permissions for the .ssh
directory, and the chmod 600
command ensures that only the owner has read and write permissions for the authorized_keys
file.
