Config in order Fedora is accessible by Affa of the SME: in /etc/ssh/sshd_config: modify the parameters (comment/uncomment) as follow:

PermitRootLogin yes
RSAAuthentication yes
PubkeyAuthentication yes
# add following for fedora=23 to accept dss-keys (generated by Affa of the SME):
PubkeyAcceptedKeyTypes=+ssh-dss
#AuthorizedKeysFile .ssh/authorized_keys
PasswordAuthentication no #(that is optionnel !)

Take the modifications in consideration:

sudo service sshd reload

Mounting the SME on the Fedora via SSH

To be able to mount the SME on a mount point of the Fedora via ssh:

sudo dnf install sshfs

and mount the SME after having created and chmod777 the mount-point “/mnt/sme_intel” previously:

sshfs root@IP.sme:/ /mnt/sme_intel -o noatime,uid=1000

If the login via SSH on the SME is protected by a key SSH, load it previously:

ssh-add /way/to/the/key/root@the_sme.rsa
