Hi all, again i know this is a silly question, but making me crazy
i run a dsl machine, using "ssh" as a cheat code. so i know ssh will be working inside the machine dsl is frugal installed and loaded "toram"
however, to use ssh i need a root password, and default password is "" (none) so i change password on dsl machine (typing passwd etc etc) and all work fine
btw, when machine is restarted, it restore backup, so i cannot enter ssh again -.- how do i make password change permanent?
(or: how can i add rsa pub key so it does'nt ask me for password?)Not silly, but did you search the forums at the very least?

i searched, but found nothing... (i found neither my old topic, dated few months ago...)
btw, inserting rsa authorized keys into /root/.ssh/authorized_keys i can login without asking for a password
if i backup /etc/shadow i can set a password
then i need to found a way to ask for password when i type sudo... editing sudoers? well it could be useful BUT visudo does not work -.-Use nano or any other editor to edit sudoers..
