On FW >4.2.11 the ssh root access has been disabled, you have to connect with the administrator account and change to root usingLSDWho wrote: ↑28 Oct 2021, 02:54 Have upgraded my F5-221 to 4.2.16 but it has caused me a few issues:
SMB was disabled - no biggie initially as easily re-enabled it.
Plex is killed - service just enters a "stop" state as soon as you try to start it. This has happened a few times in the past and I've had to wipe the data folder (/home/plex/Library/Application Support/Plex Media Server) and start from scratch. It's a pain in the bum but it works. However, I can't do this now due to my third issue....
I can't SSH to the box. Firstly, like SMB, the update turned this off. I've re-enabled it but now every time I try to connect I can't log in as root (ssh root@192.168.1.160 -p 9222). I'm prompted for the password, which as always I put in the same password as the admin account. But it won't accept it and just repeatedly prompts for the password.
Any ideas on what may be causing this any any possible fixes?
Cheers
Code: Select all
su root
