IX Server SSH Access SSH access notes for IX server - key auth not set up on GURU-5070 (was CachyOS), must use sshpass with password reference

[VERIFY 2026-05-26 — written under the old CachyOS install; GURU-5070 is now Windows 11. Re-confirm whether key auth is set up before relying on the no-key-auth/sshpass note.]

IX Server SSH from GURU-5070

  • Host: 172.16.3.10 (ix.azcomputerguru.com)
  • User: root
  • Password: See credentials.md
  • SSH Key Auth: NOT configured on GURU-5070 (formerly acg-guru-5070; now Windows 11)
  • Must use: sshpass -p 'PASSWORD' ssh -o StrictHostKeyChecking=no -o PubkeyAuthentication=no root@172.16.3.10
  • Suppress warnings: Pipe through grep -v WARNING | grep -v 'not using' or tail

Why: The SSH key from this machine hasn't been added to IX server's authorized_keys yet. The old WSL key (guru@wsl) was authorized but this was a new install (originally CachyOS; GURU-5070 has since been reinstalled to Windows 11).

How to apply: When running commands on IX server, use sshpass approach. Consider setting up SSH key auth to simplify future access.
