Bear in mind that the above will only work reliably if you have defined a static IP address (e.g. 192.168.1.8) for the livecd PC on your router. PS. To connect to it from a MS Windows machine with e.g. PuTTY you'll need the corresponding entry in the system32/hosts file. -- Regards, Mick signature.asc Description: This is a digitally signed message part.

(ssh livecd from my pc does not work even after startin sshd in the remote machine where i am trying to install gentoo) I assume that the network on the livecd machins is correctly started and that you have also done /etc/init.d/sshd start on that machine. You will also need to set the root password on the livecd to a known value. If none of that works then you'll have to provide more info and perhaps someone more knowledgeable will help.

Hi, Rafael Barrera Oro написа: I already did that (started ssh, passwd root, etc), in fact, i can connect from to the computer that booted from the livecd to the my gentoo box, but not the other way around. Have you started sshd (/etc/init.d/sshd start as root). Could check with: netstat -t | grep sshd (ps aux | grep 22). ssh is the client program, sshd is the server.

Have you tried using its IP address? Are you sure the livecd machine has network access? -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list
