I want to SSH/SFTP in to my Docker container and the result from the remote host says:Permission denied, please try again.
Information to the Container:
- Ubuntu 24.04
- port 22 is Exposed
- OpenSSH version 3.0.13 is installed and running
- Root user is
root@SSHTest
SSH from remote Host:ssh root@192.x.x.25 -p xxxxx
Since the error says “Permission denied” I expected I only need to change the root password.So I did. The problem did not get solved.
I also tried ssh 192.x.x.x -p xxxxx -l root this also did not work.
I noticed when the password is requested it says: root@192.x.x.25 instead of the root user root@SSHTest since I don't really know much about ssh I don't know if that makes a difference....
My understanding of the difference in the names is that the container has a difference in hostname/IP address than the docker host on which the port is exposed.
