Re: [FW-1] Access to files on PDS

You will need to turn on SSH. Once you log into the box hit the"Systems Command" tab
on the left and then the "Advanced tab". You will then see a button to start the ssh daemon.
Hit the "Start Ssh" button. Then use a ssh client ot log into the box. The user name has to be "root"
and the password is whatever you configured it to be. This should get you to the bash prompt.....
Hope this helps

I have recently implemented my first installation on an intrusion.com PDS 2100, and everything went very smoothly... until I went to create a backup of the configuration files. The PDS doesn't have telnet, ssh or console (serial) access, so I can't log in to it to grab the files I want.

Telnet and SSH are both turned off, and the web interface doesn't have any options for backing up.

Has anyone else experienced this? I did a fresh install, and followed the documentation for staging the device, so it's a standard build.

Is there any way to turn SSH on so I can log in to the box?

Any help greatly appreciated,

Craig Little.
