If it is a Raspberry pi running Raspberry pi OS, you need to start with root@debian:/usr/lib/modules# ssh pi@192.168.0.213 And then the password is raspberry. The only machines *I* know of with a default username of debian are the Beagle boards (BeagleBone Black and PocketBeagle). For *those* machine the username / password is debian / debian. > > > I honestly don't know what the answer is... > > > > -- Robert Heller -- Cell: 413-658-7953 GV: 978-633-5364 Deepwoods Software -- Custom Software Services http://www.deepsoft.com/ -- Linux Administration Services hel...@deepsoft.com -- Webhosting Services
