OK, somehow you have managed (?) to either change the usernames or passwords 
or have done something to mess up file permssions.  You only choise is to 
either use another Linux machine to mount the file system on the SD can hack 
things (eg fix the file system perms or hand edit the password file).  Or boot 
the machine into single user mode -- this will mean you need to get a FTTI 
server port cable and intercept the boot process and edit the boot command 
line in the uBoot CLI.

Question: I am assuming you are booting a uSD card.  Is there an O/S in the 
eMMC?  If you can you boot that and log into that?  If so, pull the uSD card 
out, boot the eMMC and then reisert the uSD card.  You will now have a Linux 
system that can mount the uSD card and you can see what happened and maybe fix 
things.

Re: [beagleboard] Re: BIG problem with BBB and logging into ANY username

2021-03-28 Thread Bob Hammond

As I said in the first post on this issue:  I had run the procedure to make
an image of the functional BBB on which I could log into with both a
username and with root.  After I ran that procedure, I was then unable to
log in with ANY username and password.

The caps lock is off.  Yes, I know that UNIX/Linux is case sensitive.

Both BBB are running a recent version of Debian with custom code for
seismic data collection via a digitizer cape.

I have an identical BBB with an identical digitizer cape running the same
microSD image as the problem BBB that I CAN log into with both a username
as well as root.  So, I know the image works properly.

Question: were you ever able to login to these machines in the past?
(Obvious, but needs to be asked): do you have the caps lock key on?  The stock 
username and password are in all *lower case* and both the username and 
password are case sensitive.

Are these machines running a stock microSD image?

Upon typing the password, I get:

 I have tried debian/temppwd and that doesn't work.

 I've read about using a serial connection to the BBB and interrupting
 the boot sequence to gain access.  Anyone done that?

Re: [beagleboard] Re: BIG problem with BBB and logging into ANY username

2021-03-28 Thread Bob Hammond

PuTTY (and WinSCP) are used on a host PC running Windows 7 Professional.
Yes, I'm certain of the IPs for both BBB.  Both BBB are connected to my
network via hardwire to a switch.

I can see both BBB using web pages (and therefore IP addresses) I set up on
them.  Both are running ok.  Both ping ok.  Both can be accessed via PuTTY
and WinSCP.
So, they are functional.

I just simply cannot log into them with any known username/password.

Re: [beagleboard] Re: BIG problem with BBB and logging into ANY username

2021-03-28 Thread jonnymo

Are you using Windows or Linux on your host PC?  Since you mention PuTTY, I
would assume it is windows.
You could try to connect to the BB using the USB Network options:
https://www.digikey.com/en/maker/blogs/how-to-connect-a-beaglebone-black-to-the-internet-using-usb

Are you certain the IP you are connecting to is the new BB?
How is the BB connected to your network?

If you can get a serial or USB Network connection you can check for the IP
with"
   $ *ip a*

If you have another Linux system on your network, you can scan for IPs with
the following:
NOTE: Chane 192.168.1.x to what is appropriate for your network.
 $ *for i in {1..255}; do (ping 192.168.1.$i -c 1 -w 5 >/dev/null &&
echo "192.168.1.$i" &); done*

Cheers,

Jon

Re: [beagleboard] Re: BIG problem with BBB and logging into ANY username

2021-03-28 Thread Andrea Sannuto

I found this for the serial connection.

https://www.dummies.com/computers/beaglebone/how-to-connect-the-beaglebone-black-via-serial-over-usb/

Some ideas :
Once in as root, I would
- change the root password :
# passwd
- The user password:
# passwd username
Check the logs focus in the time you had attempted the remote login - find
why it was not allowed to login.
Check the sshd service is enabled  (however should be up)
Have you hardened your configuration? Ie any firewall (iptables) , any
fail2ban or something else;
Enforced  sshd to accept only user connection (no root)?

Re: [beagleboard] Re: BIG problem with BBB and logging into ANY username

2021-03-28 Thread Bob Hammond

I am able to connect to the BBB with PuTTY and get a prompt to log in.  I 
have tried debian/temppwd and that doesn't work.

I've read about using a serial connection to the BBB and interrupting the 
boot sequence to gain access.  Anyone done that?
