No password prompt on Debian 9.3

credev · 10-29-2019, 11:10 AM

Hello,

I am stuck with sshd_config settings on Debian 9.3

Systemctl status ssh
It´s ok
Port 22 is open no firewall yet.

sshd_config have:
MaxSessions 5
PermitRootLogin yes
PasswordAuthentication yes
PubkeyAuthentication no

Using
ssh -vv root@xxx.xx.xxx.xx -p 22

I still get immediately “Permission denied” without get the password prompt.
Permission denied (publickey,password,keyboard-interactive).
Or
Permission denied (password).

ssh -vv root@xxx.xx.xxx.xx -p 22
So what ´s missing to enable remote ssh with root password ?

Thanks

Since you are using -vv, please post what it is reporting.

Also check /var/log/auth.log on the server you are trying to connect to (if possible)

Not very encouraging for helpers to find it themselves....

A basic guide line to check your setup:

Hi,

The issue was solved updating local ssh.

Thank you all
