If you know where the problem lays indicate it: webshell

Did you enter the sudo password or the password for said user?

[Thilaknath]

@WinnaZ Yes i did enter the password, But the session gets terminated no matter what.

[Thilaknath]

@WinnaZ I have a workaround for the above, Not sure if this the right approach.

1) Launch the butterfly server using the following flag --login. 2) The above prompts me for a username/password when i connect from an external client and i am able to access the shell once i provide the system credentials where butterfly server is running. 3) I also would have to manually go and execute ./faraday-terminal.zsh to have the client shell open with in my webshell

Can you advise if this could be improved if the client certificate is already present in the server and the user allowed to directly login in to faraday client shell.

Closing this issue, Since this is not related to faraday and it corresponds to the webshell behavior.
