How use login in lish?

Common Login Problems

• Usernames and passwords are case-sensitive. 'root' is different that 'ROOT". Try entering the password with caps Lock on and with off in case it was on when you initially set the password.

• The root password is different the password used to login to the Linode Cloud Manager.

• The password does not show any indication when you type.

• Linode Kubernetes Engine worker nodes are not directly accessible from LISH

• If you wrote down your password, beware of commonly confused characters such as:

  • " o ", " O ", and " 0 "
  • " 1 ", " | ", and " l "
  • " ` ", " ' ", and " , "
  • " 8 " and " B "
  • " - " and " _ "

• Root login may have been disabled by you or someone using your account and you may need to use a different account to login.

• a hacker may have guessed a simple password and has changed it

Can you tell us more about your system in case it has some bearing on a possible solution? Anything that you can think of might be helpful. i.e.

• What distribution are you using?
• When did the problem start to occur? What happened with the system prior to the problem starting?
• What software did you install on the system?
• Are you using Glish, Weblish, or LISH via SSH? (Have you tried a different approach? For example, Command-V does not work in Glish for pasting a password, you would need to choose, Edit->Paste from the browser's menu bar to paste into Glish.
• Do you have more than one Configuration Profile/Root disk? Perhaps you are changing the password on one, but are booting using a config that references the other.
