  • Force SSH client to use Password Authentication

    Some times you may need to test if password authentication works for SSH and you have SSH key authentication already set.

    You can comment out your SSH key from ~/.ssh/authorized_keys to do this. Another solution is to use

    ssh -o PreferredAuthentications=password USER@SERVER_IP
    

    To disable Public key authentication, use

    -o PubkeyAuthentication=no
    

    ssh
