SSH Server refused our key: Invalid user

cn flag

I wanna log in via public/private Key to SSH.

  • I use the Port given in the sshd_config I added two users. Both have the folder .ssh(chmod 700) and the file authorized_keys(chmod 600).

  • User A can connect with their key

  • User test can't use their own or user's a key to log in. (I added both public keys to the
    authorized_keys and Yes the Keys are correct pasted)

Error:

Server refused our key
No supported authentication methods available server sent: publickey

I don't know what to do. Down below, you can find the sshd_config and the /var/log/auth_log

Log:

Try `ssh` with a couple of `-v` flags for more verbose output (the more `-v`'s the better) so you can see what is really going on.

I've had issues where when using a ssh-agent with multiple keys the remote server terminates the negotiation because its run out of attempts.

Try doing a ssh -vv and adding the results to your question above.

Most people don’t grasp that asking a lot of questions unlocks learning and improves interpersonal bonding. In Alison’s studies, for example, though people could accurately recall how many questions had been asked in their conversations, they didn’t intuit the link between questions and liking. Across four studies, in which participants were engaged in conversations themselves or read transcripts of others’ conversations, people tended not to realize that question asking would influence—or had influenced—the level of amity between the conversationalists.
