A password prompt followed by a "Permission denied" error. You need to either use SSH pubkey authentication (and specify the username 'user'), or log in as root and set a password for the 'user' account. ssh root at ip.of.your.device will work with the password 'rootme'. That's probably not what you want in the long term. I suggest changing the root password. (Or locking the root account with 'passwd -l' after you've set up pubkey auth and granted the user 'user' full sudo rights.) > > (I use OpenSSH myself.) > > I'll put openssh in my ever growing list of things to try. :-) Easiest way to install it: first install becomeroot and xterm (and remove dropbear), then open a terminal and do sudo su apt-get install ssh Alternatively, if you're happy with dropbear, stick with it.

Yes, but those repositories do not contain anything interesting (yet).
