can't log in

[Thomas Moersch]

Hello, everybody.

I am running Alt-F 0.1RC3 on a D-Link 323.  I installed alt-F about 4 weeks ago.  I created a user, enabled ssh login.  I kept the admin password in KeePassX.  I copied the user's ssh key with ssh-copy-id to the Alt-F server.  The ssh key authentication never worked but I didnd't spend much time on it.

Now I cannot login to the Al-F NAS server using the webinterface or an ssh session.  The ssh daemon is active but I cannot authenticate.

What now?

Any suggestion is welcome as long as they are polite ;-)

You can try the back button trick (10 sec) to enable telnet to port 26 without password prompt for root.

Hi, Cem.

I'm afraid I don't understand.  How do I send 10 seconds worth of "backbutton" keypresses to the NAS server?  From the webinterface?  From the ssh login attempt?

There is a recessed button on the back of the DNS-323, see:

O.K.  I got it.  Sorry, I assumed you were referring to the "backspace".  I was able to get back in.  I tried root insead of admin and it worked.

Thanks for your assistance.

Do you use ssh keypairs to authenticate?  I tried that.  I installed a key but no luck.
