Can't SSH into server
Just signed up for my linode account, installed Ubuntu and now I'm trying to SSH in with no luck.
I'm using the IP under my Network tab and when I supply the password I used to set up the linux distro I get rejected.
No idea what I'm doing wrong or what other password I can try.
Any help would be huge.

Generally speaking, you should mention what the problem was and what you did to fix it… Even if it was something silly.
In the future, it may help someone who has the same problem and searches these forums for a solution.
I modified the config file and stupid as it sounds
yes/no must be ins lowercase and I stupidly modified it with uppercase NO instead of no
You may want to see if you put in illegal values like that as well.
Also through the console why you get to through your account you can modify or install sshd as you please with yum install assuming Linux is used.
I hope that helps!
