No access to lxc containers

[Bestbeast]

Hello,

I have been testing lxc containers through the novnc online console and was going to try in putty, when I notice that I could not, my root user and password are not working like in novnc and do not know what is going on.
I have currently tried with debian 8 and ubuntu 14.04 and the same problems.

Any idea what is going on,
Thanks

Ok solved do not know why templates come with this line in sshd_config:
PermitRootLogin without-password

It's default in Debian Jessie and in newer Ubuntu. Just use a SSH key (safer).

When I was running openvz with this templates I did not have this type of errors, but knowing it now, I will modify the template and that's it

Yes, because OpenVZ was a long time ago. The newer OSes are "more secure" in this respect, so you have to create your own container template and do not rely on the predefined ones. For security reasons, I would strongly suggest to create your own templates. You can never know if a backdoor is built in.

Do you have any easy manual to do this, I have been whatching some and it is horrible to do this process

You asked in another thread about this and already got your answer: dab.
