As usual i put my public key to ~/.ssh/authorized_keys but my jolla still asks for a password. What's the difference between jolla and linux in using SSH?

Is your Jolla private key in /home/nemo/.ssh/id_rsa ? And is your Jolla public key in the server /home/username_of_server/.ssh/authorized_keys ?

@Robin He said his Jolla asks for a password, so it's the opposite scenario.

@mdosch Jolla is a Linux, no difference, have you double checked the rights?

Thank you for your replies. I recreated the authorized_keys and pasted my key again and it works. Maybe there went something wrong at first creation, now it works as expected. :)

@mdosch Then maybe close this question?

@mdosch: To avoid copy-and-paste problems or problems with wrong access rights on ~/.ssh/authorized_keys, you could use ssh-copy-id, which handles all this very well.
