minui-dropbear-server.pak

A MinUI app wrapping dropbear, an ssh server.

Requirements

This pak is designed and tested on the following MinUI Platforms and devices:

• tg5040: Trimui Brick (formerly tg3040), Trimui Smart Pro
• rg35xxplus: RG-35XX Plus, RG-34XX, RG-35XX H, RG-35XX SP

Use the correct platform for your device.

Installation

1. Mount your MinUI SD card.
2. Download the latest release from Github. It will be named SSH.Server.pak.zip.
3. Copy the zip file to /Tools/$PLATFORM/SSH Server.pak.zip. Please ensure the new zip file name is SSH Server.pak.zip, without a dot (.) between the words SSH and Server.
4. Extract the zip in place, then delete the zip file.
5. Confirm that there is a /Tools/$PLATFORM/SSH Server.pak/launch.sh file on your SD card.
6. Unmount your SD Card and insert it into your MinUI device.

Usage

Important

If the zip file was not extracted correctly, the pak may show up under Tools > SSH. Rename the folder to SSH Server.pak to fix this.

Browse to Tools > SSH Server and press A to turn on the SSH server.

This pak runs on port 22 (SSH).

The default credentials are:

• root:tina
• trimui:trimui

Debug Logging

To enable debug logging, create a file named debug in the pak folder. Logs will be written to the $SDCARD_PATH/.userdata/$PLATFORM/logs/ folder.

Configuration

passwordless-root

Note

TODO: Implement me. We need to somehow generate an empty string for a hash and template out the etc/passwd file before mounting it.

To allow access to the root user without specifying a password, create a file named passwordless-root in the pak folder.

password

Note

TODO: Implement me. We need to somehow generate a hash for the specified password and template out the etc/passwd file before mounting it.

Creating a file named password will result in the contents of that file being used as the password for the trimui user. If not specified, the password is set to trimui.
