Subject: Disabling Password Authentication for just one user

Hi!

I'm in a situation where I need to disable password authentication for a user (just public key authentication for him) while for the rest I need to maintain password authentication.

My guess would be to set "PasswordAuthentication no" in the ~user/.ssh/config file, but it doesn't seem to work.

Any ideas?

Aaron
