      Hi there,

      We have a setup pfsense version 2.3.4-RELEASE (amd64) and I am admin and have enabled the ssh console from web admin but I can't login via ssh the error is "wrong password" where as I'm using the same password that I'm using for web login.

      I really don't know what is the problem and what should I do?

      Sorry if I post my question in a wrong section (couldn't find anywhere else appropriate).

          even with root user can't use ssh.

          The pfsense doesn't let me to login to the console even physically I couldn't login. it just show the ssh login prompt repeatedly.

          I don't know what should I do.

          Can I reset the root's password using rescue mode? Or is there any other easier way?
