After nummerous advices on the list that I should upgrade, I decided to
try remote upgrading.
At the folowing step:
Reboot on the new kernel: This might be a tempting step to skip, but it
should be done now, as usually, the new kernel will run old userland
apps (such as the soon to be important reboot!), but often a new
userland will NOT work on the old kernel.
something went wrong. I issued a reboot. And when the system came back
up, SSH didn't recognize any of my passwords. All the services seem to
be running though. I even have unchrooted access through FTP. I'm in
wheel group but have no access as root with FTP. Already checked
ftpusers, but root is hashed (yes, I know this is wrong). Either I
forgot the password, or something has changed.
Any hints? Did I do something wrong? Is there a fix? Or do I have to
travel 400 km?
Regards,
Jasper
