 Posted: Tue Apr 16, 2002 5:23 am Post subject: ssh connection problems |
 |
|
i am having a problem connecting to my gentoo box with ssh as any user other than root.
i can ssh from another linux box(mandrake) or using putty on a win box and log in as root.
useing a username always gives me auth problems. but i can use the user name in a local login and it works fine. All i can think of is that the sshd is not reading the passwords properly.
i get the key host key fine.
I'm not familer with openssh setup enough to know what to look for. any ideas?
i have also tried "emerge openssh" again. and no luck.
i have also made sure several times that the password is correct.
i'm at a loss at the moment. |

| SSH is not set up automagically. You will need to edit some conf files. Man sshd for more information. Basically you have to allow users or groups in sshd conf file. |

I have looked at a working SSH setup and edited the gentoo machine setup. still can log in as root, not as user.
was there info that i missed after openssh installed? |

i am also having the same problem.
line from passwd:
| Code: | | wsmith:x:1000:100::/home/wsmith:/bin/bash |
i copied the sshd_config from a working box as well, with no luck. Also tried AllowUsers/AllowGroups commands in config file. |

I have ssh running with just the following in my config file:
| Code: | Port 22
Protocol 2
ListenAddress 0.0.0.0 |
Might want to take a look at the permissions on the user's home directory too. If permissions aren't the problem, make sure you did set a password (everyone forgets the simple things sometimes  ). If you are still having problems, look for authentication failure information in you you log files (directory is: /var/log/ ) and post it here.

Can you give me the contents of /etc/pam.d/sshd?
My /etc/pam.d/sshd contains: | Code: | #%PAM-1.0
auth required pam_stack.so service=system-auth
auth required pam_shells.so
auth required pam_nologin.so
account required pam_stack.so service=system-auth
password required pam_stack.so service=system-auth
session required pam_stack.so service=system-auth |

its the same as what your sys has
but i found the problem when i was going to include part of my /etc/passwd
| Code: |
demonace:x:1004:100::/home/demonace:
|
i fixed it to
| Code: |
demonace:x:1004:100::/home/demonace:/bin/bash
|
and now i can login, it seems that useradd is broken
or i'm just used to /bin/bash being included automaticly |

If you want to set your default shell to /bin/bash do: | Code: | | useradd -D -s /bin/bash |
