Re: Minix 3.2 setting up ssh

[Ben Gras]

Chances are remote root login is disabled by default; try making a user and sshing using that user.

Hi all,

I have install MINIX 3.20 on VMware player on Linux (ubuntu). Now, I am trying to ssh into Minix from the same Linux machine, but I am encountering some problems. First I installed openssh on Minix then I tried to ssh into Minix virtual machine with ssh ro...@xxx.xxx.x.xxx but I got the following output:

ro...@xxx.xxx.x.xxx's password: 
Permission denied, please try again. 
ro...@xxx.xxx.x.xxx's password:  
Permission denied, please try again.
ro...@xxx.xxx.x.xxx's password: 
Permission denied (publickey,password,keyboard-interactive).
 

I am sure the password I entered is correct, Trying to ssh into Minix on Minix works, but not from Linux. What am I doing wrong here? I haven't change the default setting in anyway.

As Ben says, you can create a new user. Also you can modify your
/usr/pkg/etc/ssh/sshd_config (uncomment following line):
PermitRootLogin yes

I also usually uncomment these ones to login without a password:
RSAAuthentication yes
PubkeyAuthentication yes
