Hi,
.. I gotta very confusing problem running OpenBSD. I've installed OpenBSD at a mashine and where able to do anything I wanted to ( just have added an user in the wheel group an another in the user group ) Then I tried to log in from network as root via ssh. Didn't work since I've forgotten to allow root-login in sshd_config. As I wanted to locally log in as root to change the configuration file - it doesn't work.. I wasn't able to log in any more .. even not locally..
Login: root
Password:
Login incorrect
... tried it a few times without any success...
I really didn't forget my password. I've searched for any solutions in the internet a whole day. I tried empty password, I tried "Root" instead of "root" .... no success. The user in the wheel group -> same story.
Could be related to keyboard layout. Do you have the same layout now as
when you installed the OS?
Otherwise, go single user (as mentioned in another reply).
