<![CDATA[SSH to Pixel3a Focal]]>Dear all,
I tried to connect to my Pixel3a via SSH

I set up the mobile according to the the proposal in
https://docs.ubports.com/en/latest/userguide/advanceduse/ssh.html#configure-your-device

and I also tried
https://forums.ubports.com/post/75754

The SSH seems running on the mobile since
systemctl status ssh.service
says, that ssh is active.

However the results follwong both proposals is the same when connecting from the PC to the mobile, since the result is always "Permission denied."

Any suggetion, where I could look into?

Mobile: PIXEL 3a Focal
PC: Open Suse Tumbleweed.

Thanks a lot for every hint.
Best regards

Jörg

Yes you are right, pleae apologizy the misprint, it should be service ...

Summarizing the procedure is as shown in https://docs.ubports.com/en/latest/userguide/advanceduse/ssh.html:

chmod 700 /home/phablet/.ssh
chmod 600 /home/phablet/.ssh/authorized_keys
chown -R phablet:phablet /home/phablet/.ssh

and after this modification, stop and restart of the ssh-server

sudo service ssh stop
sudo service ssh start
systemctl status ssh

thanks a lot for the supporl.
It was actually some wrong permissions for the folder .ssh/ and the file authorized_keys in combination with the lack of restarting the ssh-server. Sorry for that.

Now it works. The solution is as shown in https://docs.ubports.com/en/latest/userguide/advanceduse/ssh.html

chmod 700 /home/phablet/.ssh
chmod 600 /home/phablet/.ssh/authorized_keys
chown -R phablet:phablet /home/phablet/.ssh

and after this modification, stop and restart of the ssh-server
sudo servcie ssh stop
sudo servcie ssh start
systemctl status ssh

Thanks a lot
Jörg
