Peter,

The change was not unreasonable, because the device was wide open otherwise, 
with SSH on by default, with login to a default username and password.

Do you really not have any means to access the Pi other than SSH?  I bought a 
cheap HDMI to VGA adapter off amazon and an almost equally cheap mouse and 
keyboard.

[Dorset] SSH into Raspberry Pi Problems

[PeterM]

For the last little while, I have not been able to access my R-Pi 
software after creating new SD cards. I thought it was something that I 
have done wrong.


Now I find out it isn't

www.raspberrypi.org/documentation/remote-access/ssh/


   3. ENABLE SSH

As of the November 2016 release, Raspbian has the SSH server disabled by 
default. You will have to enable it manually. This is done 
usingraspi-config 
:


There is a workaround apparently.

For headless setup, SSH can be enabled by placing a file named 'ssh', 
without any extension, onto the boot partition of the SD card.



Because I don't have another means of connecting to my R-Pi.

*Bah*
