中文

A universal shell script for enabling root SSH access across multiple Linux distributions. Works with Oracle OCI as well.

curl -fsSL -o root.sh "https://github.com/tonyliuzj/oneclick-root/releases/latest/download/root.sh" && chmod +x root.sh && sudo ./root.sh

wget -qO root.sh "https://github.com/tonyliuzj/oneclick-root/releases/latest/download/root.sh" && chmod +x root.sh && sudo ./root.sh

Overview

This script automates the setup of root SSH access on fresh Linux systems. It detects the package manager, installs required packages, and configures SSH for root login with password authentication.

Supported Distributions

• Debian/Ubuntu (apt-get)
• Fedora/RHEL/CentOS (dnf/yum)
• openSUSE (zypper)
• Arch/Manjaro (pacman)
• Alpine (apk)

Usage

Run the script with root privileges:

sudo ./root.sh

The script will:

1. Detect your package manager
2. Update package lists
3. Install sudo and openssh-server
4. Prompt for a new root password
5. Configure SSH to allow root login with password authentication
6. Restart the SSH service

Requirements

• Root/sudo access
• Bash shell
• Internet connection for package installation

Security Warning

This script enables root login via SSH with password authentication, which may pose security risks. Use this only in controlled environments such as:

• Development/testing environments
• Lab setups
• Trusted networks

For production systems, consider using SSH key-based authentication instead.

What It Does

Package Installation

• Installs sudo if not present
• Installs the appropriate SSH server package for your distribution

SSH Configuration

• Sets PermitRootLogin yes in /etc/ssh/sshd_config
• Sets PasswordAuthentication yes in /etc/ssh/sshd_config
