SSH users for SSH Tunneling
-
Hi Everybody:
I'm trying to add ssh users without permissions to use for ssh tunneling.
I can't create users with adduser, is there anyway to create additional users?
Can anybody give me some advise on this?
Thanks in advance…

i am having a similar problem. how do i get a shell on my pfsense machine? if i plug directly into the box i can't get a prompt. it is stuck a proxy_monitor.sh message. using ALT-F1, F2, etc doesn't give me one of the other consoles. also, i enabled ssh in the pfsense management interface, and it is running (confirmed by scanning with nmap) but i can't log in using the same account i log into the mangement interface with.
so i'm not sure how i get a shell on the machine.

Logon as user roo and password <webguipassword>. When at the menu enter option 8 to go to the shell.</webguipassword>

root, not roo.

Hi People:
I found how to adduser on PfSense. http://www.acodedb.com/83/how-to-add-users-and-groups-to-the-system/
But, what do you think may be the best way to create users only for ssh tunneling?
Thanks for advises and best regards….

hello.. I'm also attempting to do this (add user(s) just for SSH tunneling I added the user via ur prev post but I get an error that the server rejected our key (admin works) the unprivilaged user can only log in if i uncheck the "Disable Password login for Secure Shell (KEY only)" option.
anyone know how I can get Key login working ?
EDIT… NEVERMIND i figured it out
just needed to copy the .ssh/authorized_keys to the new users /home/none location.
