hello everyone
i have installled OpenSSH Client and server on my two PCs both running Ubuntu 8.10... One problem wh i am facing and i wasnt able to correct that error is that whenever i wanna logon to my server (running OenSSH server) from my client machine(running OpenSSH client)...
i was prompted for passowrd thress times(first time i enered password it was rejected so is passowrd entered second and third time) and at last i was given that error



permission denied : (Public key, Password)
i am entering pasword of my local machine but it was rejected ... i dont know wh other password to enter in order to get connected.

The password should be the one for the account on the server.

You need to enter the password of the account on the remote machine, not the local machine.
