unable to login via ssh with non-root user

[srich]

I just tried the process again--I created a new user, new group, and gave the group login privileges via SSH--all via the GUI, but to no avail. Having the root user logged onto the console or logged off does not affect the behavior either.  Is there some other manner in which I can provide sftp access to a group over my LAN (protected interface).
Thanks for any advise anyone can profer.

OK, got me ...

I am the author of this small Vagrant project and I can assure you, you can login as the "vagrant" user to this OPNsense instance just fine:

So let's see, what I configured ... see screenshots, please.

This works. Definitely:

Code: [Select]

$ vagrant ssh
