January 2, 201313 yr I am trying to setup SSH connection to my unraid box (running version: 5.0-rc8a) using Putty. I installed openssh, openssl and cpio through unMenu and followed instructions from this post: http://lime-technology.com/forum/index.php?topic=4008.msg108627#msg108627 I have 2 users setup: root; root2 (+ password) I believe I did everything correct and ssh service is running on unraid. Now when I try to connect via Putty (ssh) I am being prompted for user name and password. I enter root2 and password, but access is denied then session closes (looks more like a crash). Telnet via Putty for user "root" works normally, the same when I use Windows 7 telnet client. However when I am login in using root2 credentials, telnet session closes. I created 3rd user+ password after setting up SSH and still no connection. What I am doing wrong?
January 2, 201313 yr Author Found solution adding password to main user "root" solved problem. Now I can port forward using SSH via Putty and setup CrashPlan from desktop client. Sweet.
