Adding Users to Control
$ sudo useradd <newuser> -m -d /home/users/<newuser> -p <password> -s /bin/bash $ sudo nano /etc/group #Add newuser to appropriate group(s) (usually scratch, wsi) $ sudo nano /etc/ssh/sshd_config #Add newuser to AllowUsers line for ssh access $ sudo service ssh restart #If given ssh access
Instruct user how to login to control via ssh
$ ssh -X <newuser>@wsi.staticcling.org -p <port number here>
Instruct user to change their password upon login with
$ passwd
Troubleshooting SSH issues
- Make Sure they are using port 26 if outside the office
- Make sure they are on the allowed users list in /etc/ssh/sshd_config then run sudo service ssh restart
- Check that staticcling.org has the right IP
- Check Denyhosts in /etc/hosts.deny
- Check Fail2Ban:
$ sudo iptables -L -n $ sudo iptables -D fail2ban-ssh -s <banned_ip> -j DROP
