what controls who can ssh to a server ?

[alxknt]

what do i have to do to allow ssh access for an account on my server ?

my account (an admin account) on my osx10.1server is able to connect via ssh for terminal and vnc connections.

i need to enable terminal access for another user.

i was under the impression that all users could connect via ssh, but now i seem to be unable to connect via any other account (either new or existing, admin or not).

where is list of who is allowed to ssh ?

thanks!

doh!

figured it out. mm, i couldn’t connect from the other users as they had no default Login Shell.

pity it doesn’t give you a more useful error message (ssh just reported bad password and wouldn’t connect).

thanks anyways.
