puppet is probably being run and resetting it

In labsconsole you can choose puppetmaster self which might help though not sure

Otherwise, ask for help in the wikimedia-labs irc channel. (might be quiet there, might have to try a bit later)

Puppet is managed in gerrit so you might be able to make a change there

Cheers,
Katie

Hi guys,

I've modified /etc/ssh/sshd_config repeatedly on this wikidata-suggester labs instance, and once I log out and log in after sometime it gets reset to what it originally was. What sorcery is this? :P Something to do with Puppet?

The file contains these lines:

#AuthorizedKeysFile     %h/.ssh/authorized_keys

AuthorizedKeysFile      /etc/ssh/userkeys/%u/.ssh/authorized_keys /public/keys/%u/.ssh/authorized_keys

But I need the commented line. I usually uncomment it and comment out the line below it, restart sshd, run my hadoop jobs, log out; the next time I log in, I find the file reset.

Cheers,

Nilesh
