i created a ssh local user provider for a debian 11 box with root user credentials
test connection works
scan configuration runs without error but doesn't return any users
i the log i see the following error:
SshExpectException - Time out when trying to find '[sudo] password for root: '
at Devolutions.Server.Helpers.Ssh.SshNetTerminal.Expect(String expectedString)
at Devolutions.Server.Pam.SshCommand.SshExpectation.Execute(PamCredentialBO bo, SshTerminal shell)

i manually created a pam user which exists on the debian box and "check synchronization status" is successful
but if i click on "reset password" the following error occurs:

Hello Toni,
Thank you for reaching out!
This can happen when the server doesn't support interactive authentication.
DVLS will wait for a 'password' prompt that just never occurs.
I have seen some other cases where the prompt would be in German ('Passwort'), and the result is the same.
Seeing that your scan configuration seems to exhibit similar behavior, I would tend to opt for the first hypothesis.
Let us know if this helps!
Best regards,

Hello Toni,
The prompt should show when the system calls SUDO.
Do you get the password prompt when you call SUDO?

there is no sudo package installed on the system
in the provider i use the root user who doesn't need sudo
Hello Toni,
Thanks for the feedback.
That's the point: no sudo will mean no "password:" prompt to fill out.
I'm afraid we don't support this method.
I hope this helps, nevertheless.
Best regards,
Alex Belisle
