[Bug 1890892] Re: WSL openssh-server incorrect permissions .ssh

[Rafael David Tinoco]

Hello Brian,

Thank you for taking the time to file a bug report.

Are you complaining about permissions of ~/.ssh directory ?

I have subscribed Patrick Wu, in charge for WSL1/2 releases but, to be
honest, I'm not entirely sure what is the issue you're considering a bug
here... could you better describe it ?

Since there is not enough information in your report to begin triage or
to differentiate between a local configuration problem and a bug in
Ubuntu, I am marking this bug as "Incomplete". We would be grateful if
you would: provide a more complete description of the problem, explain
why you believe this is a bug in Ubuntu rather than a problem specific
to your system, and then change the bug status back to "New".

For local configuration issues, you can find assistance here:

Title:
  WSL openssh-server incorrect permissions .ssh

Status in openssh package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  Using Ubuntu Windows Subsystem for Linux (WSL) 
  $ uname -srvmpio
  Linux 4.4.0-19041-Microsoft #1-Microsoft Fri Dec 06 14:06:00 PST 2019 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux

  (Prestep required to add port for access to windows firewall)
  .ssh directory was set as 777 when 755 (minimum) is required for operation of authentication keys when trying to ssh -i /path-to-key/key user at domain.

  Generally poor housekeeping. <3
