ssh: no authentication methods

[jtagcat]

What Happened?

Can't connect to ssh machine in any way.

Expected: I specify an ssh host (for example, helium) and it picks up ~/.ssh/config
Expected alternatively: auth would work, maybe it rejects right away because it needs touch on yubikey.

Attach the log file

Without logs, it just hangs like this for minutes:

😄  minikube v1.26.0 on Fedora 36
✨  Using the ssh driver based on existing profile
👍  Starting control plane node minikube in cluster minikube
🏃  Updating the running ssh "minikube" bare metal machine ...
^C

(have had it break and recreate VMs multiple times, especially on early interrupts, so was really hesitant to cancel it on non-VM)

Driver

SSH

[afbjorklund]

maybe it rejects right away because it needs touch on yubikey

only non-interactive keys are supported by the current implementation

• ssh: add support for extension negotiation (rfc 8308) golang/crypto#197

You would need to add a second software key, just for minikube ssh ...

Possibly try --native-ssh=false, for a potential future workaround ?

[afbjorklund]

Another approach is to log in to the remove server, and use the "none" driver.

Then the cluster would not be (directly) available from the host/laptop, though.

[jtagcat]

@afbjorklund: --native-ssh=false results in output as shown on first post, under Without native exits almost immediately:

[afbjorklund]

Can't actually see the output, so maybe needs to be run manually (or some LogLevel flags tweaked)

Most likely is that ssh didn't find any keys with a crypto that it liked, so it just exited early (error 255).

     ssh exits with the exit status of the remote command or with 255 if an error occurred.

Either way, to support yubikey it probably also should support "notouch" - or it is likely to time out ?

[afbjorklund]

Note also that most of this is handled by libmachine, that isn't really seeing much development...

https://github.com/docker/machine/blob/master/libmachine/ssh/client.go

But I can't really see any private keys being passed to the command at all, in the logs you posted.

So I guess it was expecting ssh-agent ?

[afbjorklund]

@jtagcat also, ~/.ssh/config isn't used here (as per directive -F /dev/null)

 -F configfile
         Specifies an alternative per-user configuration file.  If a configuration file is given on the command line, the system-wide configuration file (/etc/ssh/ssh_config) will
         be ignored.  The default for the per-user configuration file is ~/.ssh/config.

Only the flags passed by the library are in play... Usually, the Auth.Keys.

aha, that's probably it. Anygay, I have the none driver working. Let me know if you need anything.
