SSH Server about ish

You can create a new user by using adduser and then switch to this user by holding down the settings button in iSH for a few seconds, scrolling down, and changing the root in the launch command. You'll probably also want to install sudo, and add your new users to the sudoers file.

You cannot currently change your hostname in iSH, but you can use your device's name when SSHing, like [email protected], e.g. [email protected].

Easiest way would probably be to add a usernamehere ALL=(ALL) ALL line to /etc/sudoers

I understand that the ssh server username for my Ubuntu machine is not root, but rather dell, and the hostname is the name of the machine itself. I was hoping that I could change the server username using the ish app on my iPhone. That is, I created another server with the ish app, and it's the username I wish to change from root.

I tried creating a config file within the directory .ssh from the root directory, but to no avail.

Wow, thank you. Please, how do I add the new user to the sudo file?

[nonphiksion]

Alright. Thank you so much!

Cheers, no problem!

Based on this website: https://wiki.alpinelinux.org/wiki/Setting_up_a_new_user, alpine uses something else called doas instead of sudo.
