My understanding was that skipping the addition of a regular user was supposed to enable ssh logins for root. Perhaps I am mistaken and a serial console is assumed. In either case I think a bug report against the installer would be appropriate, which you can file with "reportbug installation-reports" (perhaps after "apt-get install installation-reports"). > However, I was able to change the '/PermitRootLogin/' settings within > the //etc/sshd_config/ ... > > #/PermitRootLogin //|without-password|/ > /PermitRootLogin yes/ > > ... which has solved my problem. Great! An installation report would still be appreciated though. Thanks, Ian. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
