August 25, 20169 yr Aug 25 19:10:23 NAS sshd[21421]: Authentication refused: bad ownership or modes for directory / Aug 25 19:10:23 NAS sshd[21421]: Connection closed by 192.168.1.21 port 59422 [preauth] Any ideas why SSH would suddenly do the above? I've had an issue before whereby a Docker container would take over port 22 and the only way to sort this out would be to restart. Not ideal. Any ideas what has caused the above but how can I restart SSH? Cheers.
August 25, 20169 yr This is usually caused by faulty packages (installed by a plugin) the underlying OS in unRAID is Slackware which uses simple tarfiles as packaging. However, the packaged tarfiles need to take care of the permissions of the / directory and should ensure that they are secure (permission should be 755). If they don't, ssh will start complaining and refuse to let anyone in.
August 26, 20169 yr Author I shall check the perms of /. I assume they should be 755? I've restarted since so back up and running but will do the above next time via IPMI cheers.
