I hesitated before sending this, as I have been flamed before for being a beginner. but I am newish to linux/asterisk, and I am running an ssh server. It is still running with default settings, (I dont know yet how/where to change it), and I CAN logon remotely as root. (Haven't figured out how to 'su' yet !)
This is using the Rapid Xorcomm v 1.0 cd, which I believe (may be wrong) is based on a very recent version of Debian ? Perhaps xorcom have changed the default setting ?
Hey Clive. I thought it was mentioned earlier before in the thread, but if not, all you need to do is edit your sshd_config file. In Debian, this is located at /etc/ssh/sshd_config, but it could be different for other distros. Open that up in a text editor and then locate the line that says PermitRootLogin yes, and change that to PermitRootLogin no. Save it, and then restart SSH. On Debian, you type in /etc/init.d/ssh restart, but on other distros it might be different. Note that you'll have to be root to edit that file and restart that service. -- Dana
Thanks for that. I did not see it before, and I was afraid to ask in case I got jumped on again !
Thanks again
