Unable to access server using SSH port 22 on IPO R11.1 FP2 1

[Tram Michael]

After upgrading IPO to R11.1 FP2, we were no longer able to access the server using SSH port 22.
We built IPO on AWS using a M4 large instance type and we usually use a private key to access the server.
Has anyone else seen this problem? Any ideas how to resolve this issue?

Did you get this resolved?
We are having a similar issue

Yeah, You need to configure a proxy tunnel for it now via COM. Its a right pain in the arse.

Even for non-subscription systems?

For local systems it won't let you access the root login unless you change a file in linux. All you can login to is the admin user. I wrote this FAQ that includes how to enable root access with WinSCP or other apps.

The particular one we are trying to log into is in AWS where we have to use a user name and public key

We get:-


16:06:40.764 Started a new SSH session.
16:06:40.774 Connecting to SSH server ec2-xx-xx-xx-xx.eu-west-2.compute.amazonaws.com:22.
16:06:42.888 Connection failed. FlowSocketConnector: Failed to connect to target address. Windows error 10061: No connection could be made because the target machine actively refused it.
16:06:42.903 The SSH session has been terminated.

Any update on this issue? I have the same problem with an AWS instance.

Hi,budbyrd
Can you re-post your FAQ on below reply you gave back in March?

"For local systems it won't let you access the root login unless you change a file in linux. All you can login to is the admin user. I wrote this FAQ that includes how to enable root access with WinSCP or other apps".
Did a search , however cannot find it in the FAQ.
Thank you.

To enable root login over SSH:


Login from a console session:
login - Administrator
password - Administrator Password


Type admin:
User = Administrator
Password = Administrator Password


Type root
Enter the root password


Open sshd_config file:
nano /etc/ssh/sshd_config


Find out line that read as follows:
PermitRootLogin no


Change it to:
PermitRootLogin yes


Save and close the file with CTRL-X


Restart the sshd:
/etc/init.d/sshd restart
or
service sshd restart

ashd reload is enough. You don’t need to restart the whole service.
