Are you sure you changed the default /etc/ssh/sshd_config and enabled root login (PermitRootLogin yes)? It is disabled by default.
All three /etc/ssh/sshd_config files have the "PermitRootLogin line commented out with a Yes by it. The comment at the top says it provides the defaults. (whatever that means). But the "PermitRootLogin yes" line is commented out in all 3 hosts. It seems to vary based on util whether the comment represent the alternate value or the default value, but seeing as they are the same on all 3 hosts, I'd expect logins between the two old systems (A(10.3)<->B(11.0)) to fail if that was the case. Unless the default changed in 11.1? But why would the change on 11.1 affect both ways i.e. C(11.1) <--//-->> <A|B>(10.3/11.0)? Seems odd that having it commented out would mean it's the current default in 11.0+10.3, but not in 11.1, but the sshd_config, I'd think, would only be used in logging in to a server. So C, when logging into "A" would use the same sshd_config file as when "B" logs into "A" (i.e. the sshd_config file on "A"). So what you say maybe true, but then something is overriding that in the interactions between (the two old systems A10.3 & B11.0). It seems like there may be some other setting that is being looked at (especially since the prob is bidirectional). ??? No? Logical? Shouldn't be working in any case? :-) That's not comforting. :-) Linda -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
