hi, i created a live-usb of xbmcbuntu but now i cant ssh in.

in camalot i was able to ssh using the username/password (xbmc/xbmc) but now i am getting passward authentication errors (i also tried with a blank password but i dont think ssh allows that).

thanks,

The username and password you need was given by the installation

There's another possibility...

Let the system boot to xmbc, then press strg+alt+F1, login with your username and password you have given at the installation. If you're now on a console type:

Code:

sudo passwd root

enter the sudo-password (same as for login) and then enter a new unix-password for the user "root". This has to be done twice. After that press alt+f7 to go back to xbmc.

Now you're able to SSH with
username=root
password=...what you entered....

hope this will help. But be carefull....you're root now

cheers

I think the OP is talking about the live cd, booted in live mode, not the installed system.
