i'm not sure i know exactly what your problem is.  (where are you running 
auth/changeuser and as whom?  also which user is eve on your cpu server?)

however, have you checked the owner and permissions on these files?
fossilcons(8) should have instructions on forcing owners and permissions.
the fileserver i am currently using has these permissions:

--rw-rw---- M 9 mach0 adm 2125 Dec 18 08:13 /adm/keys
--rw-rw---- M 9 mach0 adm 1539 Dec 18 08:14 /adm/keys.who

where mach0 is eve.

hopefully this helps.
