SSH only option

Jan 21, 2008 2 Replies

I'm using XP Pro and now with IE as my default the SDM Launcher launches IE but even though I have requested the IP a little dialog box appears asking for the IP again. Once entered I then get a familiar page saying don't close this, followed by a request for my SSH details. I have to confess I do not link to my router using a secure link (no https). I should, I belive be asked for my "simple" username and password. I did not tick the https option on connection. What now please?



I have a 857 box and used to connect fine until my laptop needed to be rebuilt. Just can't find the option, if indeed there was one, for non- SSH connection.



Thanks in advance.


If you are using telnet make sure you have 0.0.0.0 0.0.0.0 telnet (or whatever networks you want to allow). If using SSH make sure you have a domain name and generate a key using "crypto key gen rsa mod 1024" or something similiar, then save the key and do an ssh 0.0.0.0 0.0.0.0 outside (or inside).

I'm not using SSH nor do I wish to. I am trying to connect using the SDM web interface. I can't connect therefore I can't check or amend any settings. Nothing has changed on the router so what can I do to connect please. It used to work fine, all that has changed is a new laptop. SDM should not be launching or requesting SSH username and passwords. Should I reset to factory settings and then once finally connected import my latest dump of the settings? I am beginning to lose the will to live right now....
