Openssh password

[gavinmc42]

Trying latest 5.1RC4
What is the password for remote openssh login?

[gerald_clark]

Set the password with the passwd command.
Add etc/passwd and etc/shadow to /opt/.filetool.lst and run a backup.

[gavinmc42]

I use/try so many OS distributions for RPi I have forgotten/misplaced the default
Add it here?

Don't you have a local login?

[gavinmc42]

Yep got local login.
but when you run passwd it needs old password

[gerald_clark]

sudo sh
passwd tc

[gavinmc42]

Thanks, was able to change password on local.

Now how do I login remotely on openssh?

[gerald_clark]

You use an ssh client on the remote machine.
On the serve, as root you run "/usr/local/etc/init.d/openssh start"

onenssh seems to be running as default in 5.1RC4

I'm using Putty on Linux Mint box

I get message

What I need is openssh's default user and password so I can remotely login.

Read annoncement http://forum.tinycorelinux.net/index.php/topic,16439.0.html

It is alwayas good to read release annoncement before tweeking a system. And it is the best advice for others too looking for help.

Thanks,

Did lots of searching but missed the link to the news.
Knew it would have to be somewhere.

Remote shell working no problem with mc.
Time to start doing the real work getting my own apps running.
Nodejs and or WebIOPi?
