[kwlug-disc] SSH to a VM

[Nick Guenther]

Also to diagnose the last problem--which is not IP related-- run ssh -vv. It sounds like you're offering a pubkey and it's rejecting it, and this will show you which. I believe openssh by default falls back to asking for passwords in this case, but maybe your client config or the VM config is denying that.
