  • SSH key login fails because /storage has write permissions for group, others

    I've never had this happen, it should default to 755

    Code
    drwxr-xr-x   15 root     root        4.0K Oct  4  2016 storage

    Hello all,

    I am a Rasberry Pi user who started with NOOBS and OpenElec. I recently upgraded to the new LibreElec, it all went very smoothly thanks!!

    I have only just managed to get the password-less SSH working thanks to this thread. I noticed that the /storage was owned by user "1000" and group "1000".

    Code
    drwxrwxr-x   19 1000     1000          4096 Jan  5 19:19 storage


#chown root:root storage
#chmod 755 /storage


drwxr-xr-x   19 root     root          4096 Jan  5 19:34 storage

    and now by public/private key works!!!

    This is obviously a rare bug, but you have lots of Pi users and many people start playing around with NOOBS, so maybe you could add some script to the updater to check for this ownership issue?
    (or we can hope that they do a search for SSH without password login or similar, and find there way here!)
