Unable to login through lish

Hi folks,

Changed my lish password through linode web application and when i click on lish console that pops up a black screen with the user name linodeXXXXXX and the newly changed password I can't seems to login.

Any ideas? Hope it doesn't affect my normal ssh login though.

Cheers

Toby

I think you're meant to use your web manager username, not your linode server name.

that is if I understand what you're trying to log into.

edit:

or maybe not. ignore me

Hi Chesty,

Thanks for the reply. Actually i tried both and several others as well. No luck :(

Cheers

The LISH password and keys in the Remote Access tab are for LISH via SSH – AJAX LISH hooks you right into your Linode's console. Once you're there (either via AJAX or SSH LISH) you'll see your Linode's console prompt, where you'll log in with "root" and your root password or any other user you've created internally to your Linode. To note, you can reset your root password from the Rescue tab.

If only Linode provided some documentation on accessing your system via Lish…
