On a similar note, I've been trying to get user-level auditing working 
    using ssh.  When you telnet in, it logs actions under your userid, but 
    when you ssh in, it logs everything as root.  (Presumably because sshd 
    is running as root?)
Has anyone else had this problem, or know of a workaround?
This is 6.5X18

You need to create a proper directory structure in your filers' /etc 
    first 
    to access it via ssh without a password:
Create /etc/sshd/<username>/.ssh/authorized_keys and paste the public 
    key 
    of the accessing host in that file. 
    <username> has to be the user on the remote host that is used to 
    transmit 
    the ssh command. 
    I did not find a way to make SecureAdmin or ONTAP create that file 
    automatically yet...
With the option "ssh.pubkey_auth.enable" activated, the user now 
    authenticates without a password.

Can anyone on this list confirm whether ssh can be used in place of 
    rsh (after purchasing SecureAdmin ofcourse), without requiring the 
    use of a password?  It appears to be the case, based on the existence 
    of the options "ssh.pubkey_auth.enable" as well as 
    "ssh.passwd_auth.enable" 
    on my DOT 6.4.5 systems.  I'd just like to make sure before buying 
    the SecureAdmin software because I'd rather not bother if I have to 
    stuff the password into an expect script somewhere.
