Good to hear that you're becoming a fan :) Are you referring to remote login via ssh? That's perfectly doable - I have it working so that my backup pCP fetches files from a couple of other pCP devices via rsync over ssh. 1) From the machine you're logging in -from-, use ssh-keygen to generate the public/private rsa key pair in /home/tc/.ssh/id_rsa. The passphrase can be blank. 2) If that's the only machine you're going to login from, copy that id_rsa file over to the machine you're logging in -to-, with the destination name /home/tc/.ssh/authorized_keys 3) If you're going to login from other machines, add the contents of their id_rsa files to that authorized_keys file. 4) Login once from the -from- machine, so that it is added to the known_hosts file. Thereafter, logging in via ssh should not require a password or any user input. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ chill's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=10839 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=111016 _______________________________________________ plugins mailing list plugins@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/plugins
