I've recently purchased the Synology NAS 215j and having problems with SSH.
Root user works as expected I've added my public key to /root/.ssh/authorized_keys...
Problems with non-root user:
sshd always asking the password and seems to ignore the key...
When I want to use public key authentication only I get Permission denied (publickey).
I've checked the permissions of user's home dir:
$ ll /volume1/homes/
drwx------ 7 user001 users 4.0K Dec 16 22:55 user001/
drwx--x--x 5 admin users 4.0K Dec 16 00:00 admin/
permissions of .ssh/*:
$ ll /volume1/homes/myuser001/.ssh
-rw------- 1 user001 users 725 Dec 16 11:23 authorized_keys
$ ll /volume1/homes/user1
