D. Höfer | hcsystem 1 Posted June 20 Share Posted June 20 Good morning, im facing an issue after successfully migrating CentOS to Rocky. despide activating remote management on the appliance (webmin is working), i just cant login via SSH as root. i always get an "access denied" error. the password im using is correct. i already tried to change it via webmin, but still get an access denied/permission denied. i tried different maschines and different SSH applications. did i miss something? do i have to enable anything else before being able to SSH into the new ESET Protect server?

Solution thae 11 Posted June 20 Solution Share Posted June 20 With Rocky Linux the usernames changed for Webmin/SSH access. For Webmin it's root. For SSH it's admin. Seems like that's the reason, since you mentioned root D. Höfer | hcsystem 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
D. Höfer | hcsystem 1 Posted June 20 Author Share Posted June 20 omg, yes that was it! thank you very much do you know if this anywhere documented? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thae 11 Posted June 20 Share Posted June 20 I think this was shown when you enabled the management option... Yep, here's a screenshot of it: https://help.eset.com/protect_deploy_va/11.0/en-US/management_console.html?enable_disable_webmin_interface.html Other than that: https://help.eset.com/protect_deploy_va/11.0/en-US/index.html?passwords.html D.

Camieg 0 Posted June 28 Share Posted June 28 Hi ! The "admin" account in ssh does not have root rights by default? When trying to copy a file to my appliance with the "admin" account I got a permission error ! Thanks for your help Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
karlisi 26 Posted June 28 Share Posted June 28 As per documentation, admin account is in root group, not with root rights Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Camieg 0 Posted June 28 Share Posted June 28 I have 2 questions, first, how I can connect with the "root" account using ssh, I thought the password was the same but apparently not! Secondly, I cannot copy files to my appliance using the "admin" account, which account should I use? Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
karlisi 26 Posted Monday at 06:05 AM Share Posted Monday at 06:05 AM Root login over ssh is quite dangerous and typically isn't enabled. You can ssh using 'admin' and use sudo. If You are sure to change this, simple search 'how to enable ssh root login' will help. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Camieg 0 Posted Monday at 08:24 AM Share Posted Monday at 08:24 AM Ok thank you ! To copy file, i'll use Webmin. For other operations, i'll use Sudo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
