ssh error - no controlling tty
Hello, I have a debian potato system running in a cobalt raq 3. All is working 100% except ssh. When I try to ssh from my box to localhost or anywhere else I get the error You have no controlling tty. Cannot read passphrase Please remember that I do not have a physical /dev/tty1 becuase the MB in the cobalt box does not have a keyboard or mouse slot at all. Thank you in advance for any and all insight you might be able to provide me. Andrew

I have sshd running on the device, and it is working correctly. I can ssh to the box all day, I just can not ssh out or to localhost. Since ssh -t is not working what other advice might someone be able to bestow upon me? Again thanks in advance. Andrew
[Fwd: Re: ssh error - no controlling tty] SOLVED
I have gotten to the bottom of my issue. It was not ssh it was one of the daemons I am starting out of inittab. It was not sucessfully backgrounding so init never finished. Weird one. As always thankyou for the help.

ssh and no controlling tty
Hi, I'm building a two disk boot/root disk set. My Problem is that ssh and ftp are not working. If I try 'ssh 192.168.0.2' I got the message: no controlling tty. If i try 'ssh 192.168.0.2 -i /root/.ssh/identity' I got the message: wrong passphrase permission denied permission denied without ever beeing prompted for my passphrase. When I try ftp 192.168.0.2 I am prompted for the username, but not for the password and only got the message wrong password. I think it has something to do with libreadline. Any Ideas?

I have just forgotten to copy /dev/tty to my bootdisk. Ciao, Timo[EMAIL PROTECTED] -- .-'~~~-. .'o oOOOo`. | Timo Benk ;~~~-.oOo o`. | Germany `. \ ~-. oOOo. | `.; / ~.
