I very much appreciate the reply. I was accessing Cloud9 through eth0 not usb0 so root access from the network was possible. Were I only accessing the BeagleBone over the usb network I wouldn't have been concerned. However I remotely connected over port 3000 and saw a command line running with root.
I tried chasing down the problem but found the Cloud9 IDE just too convoluted to figure out. I tried but failed to change the default user and password in the configuration file referred to in my earlier post. At that point I simply killed Cloud9, and just used Byobu (tmux) terminals to work with node.js. In the latest build Debian r43 build Cloud9 is not installed by default so it's all good. Robert's little connmanctl tutorial post yesterday made networking much easier than messing with /etc/network/interfaces. ------------------------------------------------- Paul Wolfson, Ph.D., TX LPI, #A17473 Editor, TALI "The Texas Investigator" Dallas Legal Technology 3402 Oak Grove Avenue, Suite 300-A Dallas, Texas 75204-2353 *214-257-0984 (Tel)214-838-7220 (Fax)Send me an email. <pwolf...@dlglt.com>* ------------------------------------------------- The contents of this email are confidential to the sender and the ordinary user of the email address to which it was addressed, and may also be privileged.
