      Issue description

      Description:  The learner is asked to configure an SSH key on serverb that is accepted on servera for the student user. 

      The solution asks you to use ssh-copy-id, but that relies on password authentication being enabled on servera. I think the /etc/ssh/sshd_config.d/50-cloud-init.conf file is preventing PasswordAuthentication erroneously, given that the intent is to use ssh-copy-id and not reconfigure the SSH service on servera by way of configuration modification. 

       

       

      Expected result:
