I have searched the forum if someone else has had difficulty to access Pogoplug v4 (POGO-V4-A3-01) via ssh as root. I keep getting connection refused from Debian and I have run out of ideas on how to enable ssh root access. Hence this post.
I also read in other Debian forums that Debian Buster has disabled the root ssh login and that you have to edit
I have also seen some users on the forum being able to pipe the Debian boot information on stdout tty to netcat, just like the first part of the boot sequence can be piped to netcat listening server.
I wonder how you can adjust the Debian rootfs to send the stdout messages that usually come on a screen during boot and startup via netcat instead, to a listening netcat server executing command
user@desktop:~$ ssh root@<POGO-V4-A3-01 ip address> ssh: connect to host <POGO-V4-A3-01 ip address> port 22: Connection refusedI am using the standard rootfs Debian-5.2.9-kirkwood-tld-1-rootfs-bodhi.tar.bz2[link], where everything is from scratch. It clearly states that root password is "root", so it should work to ssh to it as root, like with rootfs Debian-4.12.1-kirkwood-tld-1-rootfs-bodhi.tar.bz2.
I also read in other Debian forums that Debian Buster has disabled the root ssh login and that you have to edit
/etc/sshd/sshd_configin a certain way so that you can access via ssh, right after a fresh Debian install. But I am sure that ssh would be enabled from start on rootfs Debian-5.2.9-kirkwood-tld-1-rootfs-bodhi.tar.bz2.
