I'm afraid I need to sign off for the moment - early start in the morning. Maybe we can reconvene tomorrow evening.
In the meantime, it might be helpful to work back through the thread again in case you can spot any discrepancies.
Aha - it looks like you copied "<paste your public key in here>" into your authorized keys file. That's where you were meant to paste in the information that you had copied from PuTTYgen, but I didn't explain it properly! Just load the public key into PuTTYgen, copy the text out of the window at...
A reboot of the box might fix that, but you're already on dropbear 0.53.1 which I think doesn't have the authentication problem, but can't be tweaked by webif. That's not critical to this step of the process, so don't worry.
I'll be giving up in about a glass and a half of red's time ;)
Could you please run the following commands for me on the box and let me know the output. I don't think that this is where the problem lies, but you never know.
ls -al /mod/.ssh
ls -al /mod/.ssh/authorized_keys
cat...
I'll be around for a while yet.
Hanging updates happens occasionally. Ignore the webif for the moment and telnet/ssh into the box then 'opkg update' followed by 'opkg upgrade' should sort you out.
There is another tool from the PuTTY suite that you might want to try, called Pageant. When you...
I came across that behaviour when I was writing seriesfiler - if you move a programme while it is being watched, a new hmt file gets recreated when you stop. I avoided that issue by ignoring files that are open by any other process.
OK - we need to focus on your PuTTY configuration.
What are the names of your public and private keys?
What are the sizes of the 2 files?
Load up the PuTTY session that you are using for testing and check under Connection>SSH>auth and check what the key file is - it needs to be the private...
Set up a new session - just configure a connection to your Humax, using SSH on port 22 and then, under connection>ssh>auth set the path to the private key file, then go abck to the top, give the session a name and save it. Don't worry about the tunnel details, that can be added in later.
Now...
If it helps, tunnelling is like diplomats sending messages in the 'diplomatic bag' - the bag is the tunnel and port is the envelope with the address on the label.
From your work on the memory layout, do you know if there is a backup bootloader held anywhere? If there is, then Humax would be confident to upgrade the bootloader OTA, but if not then it is very unlikely as a power cut during the update would lead to warranty returns. Although, it would still...
As soon as af123 posts about the webif update on the announcements thread, I will be 'liking' it, and I hope that others do the same.
It's good that you know about key pairs, but others may not, so here goes...
In order to securely access your Humax from the outside using SSH, you need to...
