Problem:

Common non-root users cannot login by SSH.

Investigation:

The problem might be caused by the following issues:

  • The user does not exist (or is not resolvable)
id ${USERNAME?}
  • The password is invalid or the user inactive (check e.g. by logging in the UMC or setting a new password)
  • SSH is not activated for the corresponding user / group:
ucr set auth/sshd/user/nagios=yes

or

ucr set "auth/sshd/group/Domain Users"=yes
  • The UCR Variable sshd/UsePAM is set to No (private key logins might still be possible if known
