I was able to
ssh <hostname>
and
ssh <ip>
between the nodes.
But the GRID Installer was throwing
INS-06006: Passwordless SSH connectivity not set up ...
Then i read that , one should be able to SSH to self. When i SSH to self , it prompted for password and i entered it.
$ ssh <ownhostname>
Password:
Last login: Thu Oct 28 15:16:51 2010 from xxxx
This system is for the use of authorized users only.........
........... BLAH BLAH.....
After doing this (Self SSH) , when i try to SSH to the remore machine (which worked earlier), it is prompting for password. ie the whole Passwordless SSH set up with remote node is gone!
Any idea why this is happening?
