Introduction to Linux - A Hands on Guide
This guide was created as an overview of the Linux Operating System, geared toward new users as an exploration tour and getting started guide, with exercises at the end of each chapter.
For more advanced trainees it can be a desktop reference, and a collection of the base knowledge needed to proceed with system and network administration. This book contains many real life examples derived from the author's experience as a Linux system and network administrator, trainer and consultant. They hope these examples will help you to get a better understanding of the Linux system and that you feel encouraged to try out things on your own.

From yesterday, I cannot connect on a server. It's a rhel 7.1, properly installed 1 month ago, not special configuration.
I did have 2 logins: "root" and "parta". I've got both password, and both are not working anymore... But, I did not change anything, nor I someone else connected to this server.
There is the ssh -vvvv:
Code:
[..]
debug2: we did not send a packet, disable method
debug3: authmethod_lookup password
debug3: remaining preferred: ,password
debug3: authmethod_is_enabled password
debug1: Next authentication method: password
root@xxxx's password:
debug3: packet_send2: adding 64 (len 58 padlen 6 extra_pad 64)
debug2: we sent a password packet, wait for reply
debug1: Authentications that can continue: publickey,gssapi-keyex,gssapi-with-mic,password
Permission denied, please try again.
I have a physical access to the server, so I can recover the root password (boot in recover mode), but I don't think it's only a "password" problem. Can it be something else ? (wrong permissions,..?)
Cannot. My access are denied (from both accounts).
Then it's not an ssh or network problem. It could be something got screwed up in /etc/passwd. When you go into recover mode, can you reset the passwords? Does that change anything? What if you set up ssh keys to allow another machine to log in without a password?

Yes, it's a production server, so I'll need to wait a little bit to reboot in recover mode.
I'll check:
