Hi:
It's me again trying to configure check_by_ssh but without success. See, 
  I follow this tutorial[1] but when I've done can't login to remote 
server from Nagios server. Let me explain a bit what I do:

1) Login into my Nagios server as "root" not as "nagios" user
2) Run this commands:
  ssh-keygen -t rsa1 (for SSH1, I think I don't need this but just run 
for precaution)
  ssh-keygen -t dsa
  ssh-keygen -t rsa
3) Copy the generated files to the remote server
  scp ~/.ssh/*.pub nagios at 10.128.50.11:/home/nagios/
4) Run this others commands:
cat identity.pub >>~/.ssh/authorized_keys
cat id_dsa.pub >>~/.ssh/authorized_keys
cat id_rsa.pub >>~/.ssh/authorized_keys
rm identity.pub id_dsa.pub id_rsa.pub

Now when I try to login from Nagios server to the remote server 
(10.128.50.11) I always need to enter the password. I try as "root" and 
also as "nagios" (meaning ssh root at 10.128.50.11, ssh 
nagios at 10.128.50.11). Why?

The curiosity came to me and I check the file authorized_keys at remote 
host and have this:

As you can see all have "root at monitoring" at the end. What is the 
problem? Does this have anything to do?
