Re: [CentOS] SSH login from user with empty password

This only works when there's been a password set for the account before locking it. For obvious reasons empty passwords are not allowed :)

Thanks everyone,

secure log tells me exactly what the problem is: "User username not allowed because account is locked"

Setting a password for that account unlocks it and ssh works as expected. I guess I have to work on my account creation routine.

I haven't tried but maybe you could just try the obvious and unlock the account? I think it is passwd -u [user]
