Hi everyone, I'm having a hard time getting RKE set up on Ubuntu 22.04. I get the error

failed to set up SSH tunneling for host [192.168.86.82]: Can't retrieve Docker Info: error during connect: Get "<http://%2Fvar%2Frun%2Fdocker.sock/v1.24/info>": Unable to access the service on /var/run/docker.sock. The service might be still starting up. Error: ssh: rejected: connect failed (open failed)

on all three of my nodes yet when I run

ssh rke@192.168.86.82 'docker ps -a'

for any of them, it returns

CONTAINER ID   IMAGE     COMMAND   CREATED   STATUS    PORTS     NAMES

as expected. Does anyone have any things to try? I've adjusted the sshd_config to have

AllowTcpForwarding yes

. I can give more of my cluster.yml file if needed.

do you have the key exchange done between the servers? all three servers would need the public key.

Yes. I utilize ssh certs and have them implemented properly (or at least I think I do). When the cert has expired (mine only last 30 minutes currently), the

rke up

command complains about authentication. When it's working (as shown by being able to ssh in without a password with that command), it gives that connect failed error.

does the cluster yaml have your ID listed as user?

The username for the cert, location, and user is all correct. The user also belongs to the docker group. I can use ansible to setup across all the hosts using my current ssh config as well.

hmm... I have encountered this only when the user wasnt defined right or the .ssh/authorized_keys file wasnt available under the home folder. did you check the file permission on that file?

I ended up just using normal ssh keys via the authorized_keys folder and gave up on certs for this.
