fmadio@fmadio100v2-228U:~$SSH
Unfortunately adding additional SSH usernames is not possible. However using Active Directory, or LDAP, or RADIUS multiple different users can login to the system with administrator privileges.
If centerlaized authentication is not possible, multiple people can login to the system using different SSH keys via the .authorized_keys config file.
The authorized ssh keys file is located in
Copy
/opt/fmadio/etc/fmadio_authorized_keysPlease note, the authorized_keys file in the users .ssh account directory does not persist across reboots. Keys must be added to the above location.
Change SSH Password
Changing the default SSH password uses the standard linux utilit "passwd".
sudo passwd fmadioExample below
fmadio@fmadio20v3-287:/etc$ sudo passwd fmadio
