Topic: ssh enabled per default?

Hi,

now that my dash is up and running the "Chumbyfication" I was wondering whether I should already be able to connect to it via ssh.
I tried, but so far I only see port 22: connection refused.

Should this be working?

Re: ssh enabled per default?

If you boot with the dongle, ssh will be enabled.

Without the dongle, you can start sshd by going to Menu->Settings->Device Info and hit the "pi" symbol in the upper right.

If you want sshd launched at boot, then do the command "touch /psp/start_sshd; sync".

Only if you turn it on.

Has ssh to the Dash worked for anyone? I go to the pi menu and press the sshd button, and the blue octy winks at me and goes away. But when I try to ssh it just times out.

Re: ssh enabled per default?

If your device has been on for a long time before you try to connect, it may not respond to an incoming connection.  There's a bug in the Sony network stack.  A reboot should bring it back.

If that doesn't work, then something else may be going on with your network routing.

It's working for me.

Please could you tell me what you did?
I am not technical but can follow directions.
I downloaded Cygwin and can ping my IP address of the Chumdash.
It asked for a password??
So if you could give me some directions I would love it but
If it is too much to do I understand that too. Peace!

Use the username "root" - it should not ask for a password.

I'd like to remind people looking for things like this that we've got a wiki, with a lot of cool stuff in it,

http://wiki.chumby.com, sshing in is covered here:

Along with many other fun things.

Some things only work on some devices, If you discover something that works on the Dash that doesn't have a dash pic by it, let me know and I'll fix that.

I dont see anything about sftp or ftp access.  Is that available or maybe in the not too distant future?

Thanks!

You can use scp to transfer files.  The others require mods to the firmware.

resetting my wireless router did the trick. Now I have ssh.
