ssh server on OpenBSD
Hello all,
first post for me in this forum ! I want to setup a file server mainly for private use at home - later I might add functionality for some friends. my prior concern is to be able to ssh in this machine so I can up/down-load files and even change things - later I might add ftp, mail and other services I am totally newbie to the unix world in general - I have some console and even programming experience from linux and macos machines though - so I read a lot of tutorials online, asked friends and did these: - set up a dyndns acount and my router so that it updates my ip (I tested this and it works, everytime I reboot the server and ping my alias I get my new public ip) - forwarded port 22 in my router. not sure if it' s as supposed, but when I nmap my public ip I can see it open. - I messed around a bit with /etc/ssh/sshd_config file and tried some several other things I found online / I tried different configurations now on all configurations I tried, ssh localhost connects me and all is ok but ssh myalias.dyndns.org asks for passwd and whatever I enter it says "not permited" or sth similar worthnoticing is that on /usr/sbin/sshd I get a message that the files that hold the keys for the hosts (ssh_hosts_dsa_..sth like this) could not be opened - even when my configuration was for passwd only security anyway, anybody could help me with a step by step guide for begginers or just a couple of advices of how to setup ssh in an OpenBSD machine ?? thx |
