Cannot get past entering password #26

Closed GoogleCodeExporter closed 9 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago
I just installed the 1.0 version and attempted to connect to one of my
servers via SSH.  I got the message about the authenticity of the host
(first time connecting from this client).  Then I typed in my password and
got a permission denied.  Tried my password many times to make sure I was
typing it right, but it would never connect.  I tried uninstalling version
1 and installing the SVN version, but had the same problem.  This is on a
brand new G1 that I got yesterday.

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Install
2. Attempt to connect to server
3. Enter valid passord

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?

I should get connected to my server.  I get a permission denied message.

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
I tried both version 1.0 and the svn version on the first G1 OS release.

Please provide any additional information below.

Can others get connected to servers?  Is this just my problem?  I'm
connecting via WiFi at my home, so I know there shouldn't be any firewall
issues since I can connect from other systems and devices.

This is most likely related to Issue 15. Could you try to use OpenSSH to 
connect to
the server with "ssh -v [host]" to see what possible authentication types the 
server
offers?

If it looks like "debug1: Authentications that can continue:
publickey,keyboard-interactive" then it probably won't work. If that is the 
case,
this is a duplicate of Issue 15.

I can confirm I had the same problem.  And the manage keys option on the home 
screen
is disabled so I can't add any keys for non-password authentication.

Here is the output from ssh -v [host], just before it prompts for the password:

debug1: Authentications that can continue: 
publickey,password,keyboard-interactive
debug1: Next authentication method: publickey
debug1: Trying private key: /root/.ssh/identity
debug1: Trying private key: /root/.ssh/id_rsa
debug1: Trying private key: /root/.ssh/id_dsa
debug1: Next authentication method: keyboard-interactive
debug1: Authentications that can continue: 
publickey,password,keyboard-interactive
debug1: Next authentication method: password

The manage keys feature is disabled for me as well, or I would try to go that 
way.

Thanks for the quick response!

OK, I got logged in after reading the comments in #15.

The problem is that I was hitting the shift key, then typing a letter.  
Instead, I
need to hold shift and press the letter at the same time.  It is odd that the
uppercase behavior is different in this app from the rest of the OS.

I'd recommend adding notes or help somewhere about this. I'm sure many others 
will
get hit by this problem.

I have noticed that when I attempt to enter a password and hit return, the 
password
is not accepted. However, if you enter the password and click OK, it is.

Is the return key being entered as a password character?
