In that case, I would keep the connection intact.

Will Eneco not make a problem of it? Because the toon is rooted now?

I don't think so. There are many forum members with a rooted toon AND an Eneco subscription. Haven't heard of any issues yet.

Do you get a SSH login prompt or is SSH not working at all? (in that case, check if you have installed ssh and check if you opened the ssh port in the iptables config)

The hashed password in this case is too old. Won't work with dropbear 2015. Modern hashes are a LOT longer than 12 bytes.
Try this one (password: password, all lower case):
Code: Select all
root:$1$1ajmZdpR$D/L7nG0lQD.u9LkTeQ0cE/:0:0:root:/root:/bin/sh
If that doesn't work, you'll have to transfer busybox-1.27.2-r2 to your toon and install that. Then you will have password control, and all other stuff that has been removed in the latest "standard" busybox.
There is a strong possibility that it won't work. I checked two of my toons with the same root passwd, they have quite different hashes. Possibly creation time, hostname and what have you are part of the hash.

Strange. I have "dropbear - 2015.71-r0" installed and that short hash is created and working fine on my Toon (4.10.6).
I have never seen a passwd hash being depended on a machine (creation time, hostname etc). Your "$1$1ajmZdpR$D/L7nG0lQD.u9LkTeQ0cE/" hash works fine on my Toon.

Great, thanks TheHogNL, so that's not the issue. A typo, then?

Another funny thing.. my 'passwd' command defaults to using DES (the old 10 character style password hash). So I don't know why your command is making a MD5 hash (which ifcourse is much more secure than DES
)
BusyBox v1.27.2 (2017-12-26 13:47:54 CET) multi-call binary.
Usage: passwd [OPTIONS] [USER]
Change USER's password (default: current user)
-a ALG des,md5,sha256/512 (default des)
-d Set password to ''
-l Lock (disable) account
-u Unlock (enable) account

Could be a setting in the busybox configuration. Will check that. I need to update busybox anyway, some of the older functionality is still missing.

The issue was that VI somehow did not remember the passowrd file after a reboot, save it now in another manner and it works !!!!
Thanks for helping me so far.

De nada.
@TheHogNL:
Busybox configuration has no option to set hash types for passwd, other than SHA256/512, which is switched on. Don't know where the default DES hash stems from.

@MarcelR:
Strange. I'm using the busybox-1.27.2-r2 in which the passwd command defaults to DES: "-a ALG des,md5,sha256/512 (default des)"
What does your passwd command tell with the (unknown) -h option?
