Title: Ssh Works Only With Root
Post by: petya on March 16, 2005, 07:02:07 am

Is that normal that ssh connects only as root? I am using Cacko 1.22 lite with hotfix A, on an sl-c760.

No, that is not normal.  I've been sshing into my zaurus as 'zaurus' from day 1.  Have you:

  *Changed the sshd configuration?
  *Defined a password for the user you are logging in as?
  *Defined a passcode in the Security app under settings?

Also, what user are you trying to log in as?

No, i am trying to ssh from my z to my desktop computer with ssh -l username foo.bar. Than ssh asks for password i type it, but it doesn't connect, only if i do it with root.

Try running this:

ssh -v -v -l username foo.bar

There should be a bunch of debug output that is printed to the screen and you should be able to figure out what is going on from the messages.

Thanks!
