Cannot SSH after system reset-configuration on v5.0

Fri Apr 08, 2011 12:30 pm

After "/system reset-configuration" and automatic reboot cannot connect to router by ssh. Router terminates connection before user authentication starts.

After manual reboot everything works fine.


The reason (I think) is invalid/missing server SSH keys. They are not generated after first automatic boot (after reset-configuration), but are generated after next manual reboot ("Generating SSH ..." message on serial console during boot).
