I've run into some rather odd behavior while using the VMTS patch manager. I've been using it form some time, but it seems to have stopped working with one of my hosts.
Setup: 4x ESX hosts. 1 management box with VMTS running.
The vmts app can login into 3 of the 4 boxes (all using the same credentials), but can't login into 1 of them. I've reset the credentials, tried login in again, no go. I keep getting a failure.
vmts reports for this specific esx box :
Tamir.SharpSsh.jsch.JSchException: Auth fail
at vmts.patchmanager.ssh.connect()
at vmts.patchmanager.HostESX.m_login()
the ESX hosts reports:
Jan 2 06:59:00 esx1 sshd[928]: Connection from 10.15.170.149 port 3015
Jan 2 06:59:00 esx1 sshd[928]: Failed password for root from 10.15.170.149 port 3015 ssh2
Odd thing is I can log in via ssh with the same credentials, so I know it;'s not an account issue.
anyone have any ideas?
