Re: [minix3] ssh files out of MINIX 3.4.0

[Sambuc Lionel]

Hi Deonace,


Obviously, this is not a recommended configuration, use at your own risk!

I am assuming login using a password here.

To enable ssh as root you need to do the following:
1. edit /usr/pkg/etc/ssh/sshd_configand change:
#PermitRootLogin prohibit-password
to
PermitRootLogin yes

2. Restart the sshd daemon with (so that the new config is loaded):
/usr/pkg/etc/rc.d/sshd restart

3. Set a password for root:
passwd

Then login for ssh & scp should work.


Kind regards,

Lionel

I have had no problems with this on Minix 3.3.0 but can't seem to get it to work on 3.4.0. Is there a reason for this?

Hi Lionel,

Thank you for the prompt advice. I have tried doing the above but can't seem to get past authentication. I also have the same issue with the latest version of NetBSD but not on Minix 3.3.0.
