I am trying to set up a Linux slave using the SSH Slaves plugin
connecting from a Linux host. I have entered the connection information
for the slave into Hudson and made sure that you can remotely log in to
the slave using the slave user. However, it always shows up as offline
and when I look at the slave log, I see the following:
[11/10/08 11:00:34] [SSH] Opening SSH connection to slavebox:22.
[11/10/08 11:00:34] [SSH] Authenticating as hudson-slave/******.

[11/10/08 11:00:34] [SSH] Connection closed.
I tried disabling the password on the hudson-slave account and removing
the password from the Hudson slave configuration, but I received the
exact same error, complete with six stars in place of the password in
the second line of the log file.
Is there something special that I need to do to get this plugin to
work? If this plugin doesn't work, how else can I set up a slave on an
X-less Linux box?
Thanks,
Chris
