One thing I noticed while setting up. I ssh in from my desktop PC
to
the Thinkpad laptop (named "thimk" <G>) to set things up. The default
seems to be to come in to the root account, unless I override. User
"waltdnes" on my desktop does not default to coming in as user
"waltdnes" on my laptop. I have to specify a non-root user. See
below.
[i660][waltdnes][~] ssh thimk
[thimk][root][~]
[i660][waltdnes][~] ssh waltdnes@thimk
[thimk][waltdnes][~]
Is this a recent change?
Have you tried ssh -v, or even multiple -v's?
What versions? I've got openssh-8.3_p1-r2, and haven't seen any such
issues. I do have a problem where ssh from my laptop (artix linux) to
my desktop (Gentoo) almost immedaitely closes the connection, but if I
ssh from laptop to a different laptop or desktop, and then to the
Gentoo desktop, it works fine. If it annoys me enough, I'll eventually
post it here as a new issue.
I'd also check UID's not just names, just in case, although I can't
think why it would matter. Is there anything strange in ssh.config or
sshd.config on either side? You might compare sshd.config on the two
boxes.
