Enabling publickey-only SSH auth on general-use machines

[ben-z]

Hi @WATonomous/watcloud-compute-cluster-users,

We’re rolling out a security update this Sunday that aligns all our SSH authentication to use publickey authentication. This change will affect the general-use machines, which currently allow both password and publickey authentication. After the update, password authentication will be disabled.

For most of you, this update will not impact your current access since we already enforce publickey authentication on Bastion Hosts, and many of you connect through these hosts.

As always, you can view a list of all available machines on the website.

Thanks,
