Authentication

Figure 184: SSH Server Authentication Menu

The Allow authentication by password field determines whether to allow clear text
tunneled passwords. If set to Yes, the user will be allowed to enter a password for
authentication if validation cannot be done using a public key.
The Permit logins with empty passwords field (when password authentication is
allowed) specifies whether the server allows login to accounts with empty passwords.
The Allow RSA authentication field specifies whether pure RSA authentication is
allowed. If this is set to “No”, users will always need to enter their password even if
their public key has been set up.
