Hi All

I have secured SSH (removed root log in and protocol 1) but when i type admin as a log in and then my admin / root password it wont accept it!

Any ideas?
huck
Are you sure there is an admin account? Perhaps wheel group protection is enabled, which means only users in the wheel group can su - too root.

You may want to try restarting ssh via the control panel.

If it is still broken, you may need to try to use telnet to get into the system. If you have a firewall blocking telnet, EV1 may have to stop it for you.

HI There

I logged in through the serail console and removed the protection and can now log in.
