Hi All.

We've recently rebuilt our Master Casper server to 10.8.2.. the Replica's are on 10.7.5.

I've tried the below to recreate the SSH public keys on the clients so we can re-do the RSYNC connections unprompted when running a shell script via a launch daemon.

However I keep getting the error "Permission denied (publickey,gssapi-keyex,gssapi-with-mic,keyboard-interactive)." when running as root.

If I run as any other user, I am prompted for a password.. so i'm guessing it's not working..

Maybe something has been left on the replica's referencing the old master?

Any ideas?
