Alternative SSH-Server – Dropbear

December 14, 2012 by Igor Drobot Leave a Comment

Dropbear is a relatively small open source SSH 2 server. It runs on a variety of POSIX-based platforms.

The perfect environment for this server could be a little low-end system like your mobile phone or BeagleBone.

Installation:

1
apt-get install dropbear

apt-get install dropbear

Configuration
vim /etc/default/dropbear

DROPBEAR_BANNER="/opt/dropbear-banner"

NO_START=0 DROPBEAR_PORT=22 # Alternative dropbear login banner DROPBEAR_BANNER="/opt/dropbear-banner"
