RE: Root Password on Alpha 4
Login as root is disabled by default.
Even if you change the root password,the root account still wont work over SSH or SCP. How to re-enable SSH/SCP login as root: Set root password: sudo passwd root -> enter xbian user password -> enter new root password -> repeat root password Enable SSH root login -> sudo nano /etc/ssh/sshd_conf -> search the "PermitRootLogin" string and set it to yes (if it's commented out remove the # in front of it. Save the file (Ctrl + X) -> Y -> Enter Reboot You now should be able to login as root over SSH/SCP. Greetz |
