Home Assistant tells me permission denied
when logging in via SSH.
Checking login: I have confirmed my username in Configuration > People > Users
, checked I am the owner, changed my password to make sure I remembered correctly, and created a brand new user with admin permissions to double check.
Checking IP address: I have used ifconfig
on my pi (where home assistant is installed) and I see an entry called hassio
with inet: xxx.30.32.1
.
Trying to login: I type ssh [email protected]
, ssh recognises the hostname as it gives me a login prompt, but then permission is denied.
Further information: I am trying to SSH from my pi to Home Assistant which is installed on my pi. I want to copy some files there, but as far as I understand I can’t directly access the home assistant files from my pi because it is in some kind of “docker” or “virtual environment” (I don’t know the terminology and I don’t really understand). I have also tried from a different laptop. Everything is on the same wifi network.
What is going on? Thank you for any help.
