I got the ip adress but it keeps saying password is wrong when connecting.

#

Not sure why because it's definitely the same password

#

What exactly does this mean?

Add -vvv flags to the ssh command for more information

wise edge Add `-vvv` flags to the ssh command for more information

I still don't understand where I should get the publickey

#

And do i need to provide publickey and password or just one of the two

One of the two

Well I used password and it doesnt work

It makes no sense

Well, you didn't even try the -vvv you didn't specify if it's a fresh or whatever install, you didn't specify if you're trying to login as root...

#

You can also go to the destination pc and look at logs of ssh, and it should tell you if it's because of bad password

#

wise edge `journalctl -u sshd` (the name of the ssh service might be different)

No entries

#

Should I change sshd to ssh?

#

#

#

This is what i'm getting

#

#

#
