KOReader version: v2023.10
Device: PocketBook TouchHD (PB631) I followed the Connect to the e-reader via SSH guide to establish an SSH connection between my laptop and my e-reader. First, I enabled login without password in KOReader, but I was still prompted to enter a password. I tried to input an empty string by pressing enter, but it was rejected. Then, I followed the steps for key authentication, and put both an RSA and ed25519 key in the Code:
/applications/koreader/settings/SSH/authorized_keys I attached the verbose output of the command I ran to try to get in with my RSA key: Code:
ssh -v -p 2222 -i ~/.ssh/id_touchhd 192.168.0.236 Code:
debug1: send_pubkey_test: no mutual signature algorithm Code:
ssh -v -p 2222 -i id_ed25519_touchhd 192.168.0.236 I did some research, but it seems like I'm the only one with this problem. Am I missing something? Could this be a device problem? Thanks for the help. ![]() |

Different device and different KOReader version but I've been having SSH problems lately as well:
https://github.com/koreader/koreader/issues/11537 Nice idea using -v with ssh, I'll try it too and see if something useful pops up. |

Some facts:
The dropbear that comes with KOReader is quite old: Dropbear server v2018.76 with custom patches applied.
If someone can point me to the applied patches, I might be able to compile the latest version v2022.83 with some additional security patches. ![]() Last edited by bitfreak; 03-30-2024 at 04:05 PM. |

The sources: https://github.com/koreader/koreader...party/dropbear
The SSH plugin is considered dead: no longer supported and not recommended. We encourage users to find a better solution for their platform. It was provided as a last resort option, always better than plain telnet. It is kept to avoid breaking workflows |
