I'm trying to access remotely to Ubuntu virtual OS from the host OS which in this case is linux Mint. My Ubuntu version has no GUI, just a terminal interface.

And change the network setting in virtual OS setting like this:

Network adapter is enabled.
Attached-to Host-only Adapter
vboxnet()

I run the virtual OS and login. Then via terminal in my host OS i do like this:

ssh -v -Y [email protected]
[email protected]'s password:
Permission denied, please try again.
[email protected]'s password:
Permission denied (public key, password)

What is wrong and how i can access it remotely?

Update: detailed log

myusername@linuxmint ~ $ ssh -v -Y [email protected]

It still doesn't work. It seems the problem in the public key. What is that? Sorry, i'm still new about this.

Password auth is disabled on the SSH server by default. You first have to enable it. See: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SSH/OpenSSH/Configuring

If the problem continue to exist, examine the sshd log file first.

Also note that you have to provide your login name, not the server name: ssh -v -Y username@192.168.56.1

  • It still said permission denied (public key). Seems like no difference with the first one. It just keep asking key

  • Just read the troubleshooting guide in the link I posted above. Also look at the sshd log in /var/log

  • - is your username really "localhost"? - did you restart the sshd after updating the config file?
