Uhoh… houston, we have a problem.

Please post here pandora_agent.conf

And post here id_dsa and id_dsa.pub

Check that key you cut/paste in /home/pandora/.ssh/authorized_keys has not DOS carriage return, and is not “cutted”. This chunk of information must be in one line, not in several lines… its a common problem when exporting keys from DOS to Linux.

Please check that “pandora” users exists in Debian server, and that /home/pandora/.ssh/autorized_keys has privs. 600 and ownership for pandora user.

So… be patient 😉

Hi!

For my SAP R/3 Agent Module testing, that needs works the Windows Agent, i cant communicate the data (i can see the XML data in temp dir ) … the pandora-log.log file reports this …

09-24-06 10:47:17: Pandora Agent: Authentication Failed when connecting to 192.168.1.230
09-24-06 10:47:28: Pandora Agent: Authentication Failed when connecting to 192.168.1.230

and the cli test say…

C:Agente2>PandoraAgent.exe –test-ssh
Public key file: C:Agente2keyid_dsa.pub
Private key file: C:Agente2keyid_dsa
Connecting with 192.168.1.230…
Authentication Failed when connecting to 192.168.1.230
Check the remote host configuration and the public/private key files.

¿?¿? … off course i make all the steps of generate the keys and insert into the authorized_keys Debian file …

Help! I’am in a stuck!

Mmm, key seems to be ok.

Check again all intraestructure

Pandora SERVER (wih SSH Server) is 192.168.1.230. Check before if its accesible using a telnet 192.168.1.230 22 and getting openssh banner.

Pandora Agent is X. You have generated keys in this machine, and copied id_dsa.pub into SERVER’s /home/pandora/.ssh/authorized_keys file.

Please recheck this before continuing testing.

Another question. I dont see any PHP execution on pandora.conf, how do do you expect to generate XML with your code ?. I suppose you was using module_exec directive to make php cli calls to your code and generate single values for putting on different modules.

It works!
Thanks a lot for your help…
I made two changes… first in the pandora_agent.conf i put the host name instead the IP ( server_ip debian ) … and second, in the windows computer i try to connect with “putty.exe” in a SSH mode, and at the six try it works! ¿?¿? i supouse that the putty.exe made something in the windows registry ¿this sounds familiar?

… and is correct, the agent looks like this :

module_begin
module_name SAP_users
module_type generic_data
module_exec c:fox2phpcliphp.exe runtime_SAP_CCMS_USERS.php
module_description SAP Server Concurrent Users
module_end

…the other pandora.conf in the previus message is a experiment for solve mi “problem” with the configuration of the windows agent.

Mmm, key seems to be ok.

i was having the same issue, i tracked it down to the fact the pandora was running under the root account. either set pandora to run under the pandora account or put the key under root/.ssh/authorized_keys
