I have installed Openssh-server on LiLi 4.4. It runs but i cannot get it to run ssh user@localhost--basically a loop back test. Sometimes it gets far enough to ask for a password and then fails when I have used a password that I entered befores. Other times it fails with other errors. I have tired a number of times to purge openssh (this also removes the config files) and then reinstalled it. but the same thing happens again. By now I have accumulated numerous usernames/passwords and every time I purge and reinstall--those same usernames appear in the log. I have no idea where the original un/pw are kept that the rsa creates from--but it recreates the rsa's with every install.
I have created a new usb stick with persistence but have not installed Openssh-server yet I want to ask here first. So a few questions please:
1. Will openssh-server even work from the above--LiLi 4.4 Live with persistence on a USB stick?
2. Where is the original username/password kept that the 2046 bit rsa code is generated from? I need to remove that too when I purge.
3. Can I safely delete the /var/logs syslog and auth logs without any problems? These files get big.
4. Has anyone done this--hopefully someone has and can give me some pointers.
thia,
Ron
