I have installed the xbmc image on my raspberry pi, which uses dropbear in order to provide ssh connectivity. The raspberry pi receives a local and fixed ip from my dhcp server (192.168.1.102).
After some time, I am no longer able to connect to my raspberry pi via ssh, albeit I am able to ping it. In addition, it has internet connectivity, since I am able to up and download files to it.
Anybody has faced the same behaviour? Is there any possibility to find something in the logs in order to identify the causing problem?
Edit In the syslog file I found just the following line about ssh or dropbear:
Jul 12 14:31:05 raspbmc xinetd[1655]: Reading included configuration file: /etc/xinetd.d/ssh [file=/etc/xinetd.d/ssh] [line=12]
cat /etc/xinetd.d/ssh gives the standard configuration:
service ssh { disable = no socket_type = stream wait = no user = root protocol = tcp server = /usr/sbin/dropbear server_args = -i flags = IPv6 }
Unfortunately, journalctl or systemctl status are not installed.
verbose
flag? E.g.:ssh -v user@host
