My allstarlink password using putty not working

good day everyone my allstarlink password not working using putty to modify my settings in my system. . .how to reset it ?

Hi!
If you are using root to ssh into your machine it could be disabled.

You would need to change the sshd config file in /etc/ssh/sshd_config

look for PermitRootLogin and change its value to yes
PermitRootLogin yes
then save the file back and restart the sshd service.

systemctl restart sshd
or
service sshd restart

Much better to not allow root login over ssh and use sudo instead.

I’ve had mine running for months. Now all of the sudden I can not log in via WinSCP or Putty either.
I have many many time but no more. Says Incorrect password.

I’m lost , do I need to redo Image on SD?

If you haven’t tried it, reboot the system with a full power cycle. Then, try to login again.
