Hi!

 

I´ve just installed Mandriva Limited edition 2005 on my server, but since i´m NEW to linux i don´t know how to configure it. =(

 

I´ve started ssh, but i can´t access it. (Hard to explain..)

 

A friend of mine told me to write "/usr/sbin/sshd -d", and i did.

Then i got..

Bind to port 22 on 0.0.0.0 failed: Adress already in use. Cannot bind any adress.

 

What does that mean?

 

I really need some help with this. :unsure:

 

Thanks in advance!

EDIT: Nevermind, i finally managed to get it to work but now i´m getting "access denied" when i try to login on ssh. :(

Ouch. Well, if you're completely new to Linux, may I recommend an excellent starter book, Test Driving Linux by David Brickner.

 

From Amazon.com (USA):

or Amazon.co.uk (UK)

It's not designed for server installations, more the desktop, but a good intro nonetheless.

presumably, you have configured network during install.

 

sshd is a secure shell daemon which listens to requests from outside to give access to your box. In order to access a remote server from your box, you don't need to have this daemon running. You shoud use an ssh client. Open terminal, then type

ssh remote.server.name

.
