Hello, @bsdaminut

Could you please let me know if you want to have both as authentication method when connecting to your server, e.g to have the password option if you connect from machine that doesn’t have the key needed for password less login?

If you want to enable password level authentication you need to set the PasswordAuthentication to yes in the sshd config file.

What you have to do is edit the /etc/ssh/sshd_config file and provide PasswordAuthentication with a value of Yes.

vim /etc/ssh/sshd_config

Find:

PasswordAuthentication no

press i for insert mode

Change to:

PasswordAuthentication yes

Save and Close

[escape] :wq

Restart Your SSH deamon:

sudo systemctl restart ssh

Some systems make require

sudo systemctl restart sshd

Hope this helps!

Regards,
Alex
