won't start as root #4

Closed GoogleCodeExporter closed 9 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago

I don't get it.  Starting the program in usermode works, but when connecting 
with ssh it says "Attempt to write login records by non-root user (aborting)"

Starting the program as root doesn't work, because it says "started" for a 
split second and then goes back to stopped.  My phone is rooted, but no message 
ever pops up notifying me that droidsshd requested root permission

I had the same issue. I played around a lot, now it works. I have a Motorola 
Milestone with Android 2.1 and Superuser v2.2.2.

I can not remeber what step exactly brought me root sshd, but I tried the 
following.
- manually adding an entry to Superuser database for droidsshd
- playing around with chmod, chmod 04755 or chmod 06755 for the droidssdh 
binaries
- i copied also some binaries from dropbear4android to /system/xbin, now also 
scp and sftp works fine

Can you please try v0.6 and let us know if the problem still persists? Thanks!

It works with v0.6 (but it did already with v0.5 after some workarounds on my 
phone). I uninstalled v0.5, then installed v0.6 and changed the paths to 
/system/bin where my original binaries are, and it works. But I can not 
definitely say if it would work out of the box on a plain rooted Android phone.
But now on my Linux machine I can not connect via sftp. scp works. Can you 
please add a binary for sftp directly in droidsshd?

Thank you for this awesome app!
