Oh? Salmo's IP address is 192.168.55.1 while the router's is 192.168.55.4. > Yes. And its private key goes in /root/.ssh/id_rsa # ls .ssh/ authorized_keys config id_ed25519 id_ed25519.pub known_hosts > You should be able to become root, and then ssh localhost and get a new > login prompt without any other interaction.

ED25519 key fingerprint is SHA256:/RInRdtcIMbpPu3LZmpg5wfAWi9ozQwgKLPnTQEDcxg. Are you sure you want to continue connecting (yes/no)? yes Warning: Permanently added '[localhost]:<port_redacted>' (ED25519) to the list of known hosts. Permission denied (publickey). # ssh localhost Permission denied (publickey). Sigh. This is all new. Any idea how I fix it? I don't need a secure shell with the external backup drive any more than I do when I plug in a USB flash drive. Where might I learn how to do the transfers without ssh?
