Login Information |
In most cases, root login information is required on your system(s). We need the hostname(s) of the system and login information for it. The preferred login mechanism is as follows:
Create a login account (pw useradd matt with the password "changeme" or some other randomly assigned eequivalent. If you don't have sudo installed, install it (pkg_add -r sudo) and grant the user "matt" su privilges by adding this line "matt ALL = NOPASSWD: ALL" to your sudoers file. Test by logging in as "matt" and make sure you can "sudo su".
If you have a firewall in place, make sure to enable incoming SSH from matt.cadillac.net.
It is recommended that you disable the login after work is done. The best method is to disable the "matt" login by changing the shell to /sbin/nologin. If you need work in the future, simply change the shell back to a valid one and we'll have access.
