[lubuntu] ssh requesting password twice

$

0
I am attempting to connect to a router using SSH, running 64-bit Lubuntu 17.04, which I have configured in VirtualBox.
It connects, but only after requesting for the password twice.

The hostname and hosts files on Lubuntu appear as follows:

Code:

pl@router1:/etc$ cat hosts
# 127.0.0.1    localhost
127.0.1.1      router1   


# The following lines are desirable for IPv6 capable hosts
::1    ip6-localhost ip6-loopback
fe00::0 ip6-localnet
ff00::0 ip6-mcastprefix
ff02::1 ip6-allnodes
ff02::2 ip6-allrouters

Code:

pl@router1:/etc$ cat hostname
router1

The command to connect is:
Code:

$ ssh -l pl -p 14601 localhost
pl@localhost's password:

. ok
pl@router1:~$

The port forwarding rule in VirtualBox appears as shown below.


Any suggestions as to how to ensure the password is only requested once or not at all ?

Thanks
