you need to open up a terminal, and type this into it
Code:
sudo /etc/init.d/ssh restart
it will then ask you for a password.
Ok, apart from that I am having the same problem. I changed the
Code:
/etc/ssh/sshd_config
file to allow PasswordAuthentication, restarted ssh but that didn't help.
I can log into the server with putty when I am using the LAN IP address, and that works just fine. But when I use the WAN IP adress, it asks me for the user name, which I provide, and the password, which I also provide, and I am 100% sure both are correct (since they obviously worked through the local access). Furthermore I have tried it at least 15 times, this way eliminating typos, keyboard layout issues and what have you.
Anybody have an Idea?
