New Ubuntu image

[hart]

I've just installed the Ubuntu image but it seems the sshd daemon isn't running so I can't log in.

Looks like sshd was not even installed. I have installed it in the image, you can either reinstall or you can login via the console and install/enable sshd yourself.

Many thanks. Yes, Ubuntu doesn't install sshd by default. I eventually figured out how to log into the console and I'm now happily configuring the system :)

Thanks again.

Did someone update the image? After a moment or two, I was able to log in using ssh to the normal port.

Also, where the heck is my filesystem?

root@us:/ # df
Filesystem 1K-blocks Used Available Use% Mounted on
tmpfs 14336 0 14336 0% /dev/shm
root@us:/ # mount
proc on /proc type proc (rw)
sysfs on /sys type sysfs (rw)
devpts on /dev/pts type devpts (rw,gid=5,mode=620)
tmpfs on /dev/shm type tmpfs (rw)
root@us:/ #

Sorry about that, one more error there. You can either reload now or put in the following fstab:


/dev/sda1 / ext3 errors=remount-ro 0 1
/dev/sda2 none swap sw 0 0
proc /proc proc defaults 0 0
none /dev/shm tmpfs defaults 0 0
none /dev/pts devpts gid=5,mode=620 0 0

I reloaded the with Ubuntu and my root password would not work. I tired it 3 times so I am pretty sure it is not my mistake. My password was 8 characters long and contained a number. Upon first login with ssh it would not work.

Thanks,

Root is disabled by default on Ubuntu but I think Matt changed this in his install. If he didn't, unlock root from your user account with "sudo passwd -u root" and set a password as normal.

I don't understand this step. What is my user account? I've tried "ssh -p 7322..." and I do not know what login to use. In terms of a unpriviliged login on the new Unbuntu install, I cannot guess what that would be or what password it would have.

Thanks,

You can change the console access password from the Teknic control panel. Click on your IP address and change it at the bottom of the next page. Then login as root.
