**ibnahmed** · 05-26-2007, 09:12 AM

== it seems i am asking too many questions here but hopefully other gues find it useful in case they face similar problems

i bought a new leeware
jsut the info arrived today
i tried to log in by putty, when i enter the pass it says access denied
while if i go to http://vpsxxx.leeware.com:10000
it logs in

so how come?

i sent an email to lee but as usual takes some time to respond.

i guess u could setup the box using the guide in command shell while u wait for lee to fix your putty issue

how to use the guide in the command shell, where is it?

ok, i got. u mean enter the command of the walkthrough in the command shell
everything fine, i did that
except, when i come to vncserver :1 command
it asks me to set the password and when i neter a pssword it says command not known (i.e. i should put a command there not just the password)

anyone can finish the final step?
help really appreciated.

If you can login successfully in webmin, you should be able to login successfully in putty, since it's the same username/password. You might need to restart sshd, you can do this in webmin under servers/ssh server. Also make sure you type the password in putty slowly and carefully, since sometimes there's a bit of delay in putty.
