protecting Red Pitaya with password? - ssh

Is there a way of protecting a red pitaya with a password?
I have my red pitaya connected to a network that many people can enter. I am new to red pitaya and want to do some tests and get into using it before connecting it to a more secure network (that I currently cannot use).
While working on it and trying out new things I would like that only I can access the red pitaya, or that one at least needs a password.
I already changed the SSH password with putty (I'm on windows) but I can still access the red pitaya in the browser without verification.

Microsoft Edge Keeps Prompting For Certificate

I have an application that uses certificates (*.p12) to authenticate users. I want to be able to use it in Microsoft Edge (version 42) and Internet Explorer (version 11), but these browsers give me issues.
Speaking specifically of Edge, I have added the certificates to the certificate store, and they are available for me to login. When I navigate to the website, I get prompted with a window that says "Select a Certificate" (as I expect) and I select the desired user's certificate from the prompts dropdown and click "OK".
This is where the issue occurs. After I select the certificate, the prompt immediately pops back up. The prompt can reappear between 2 and 10 times. It seems to be worse in Internet Explorer. Either way, the re-prompt impacts my ability to do a number of things with the website that I need to do.
Is this a common issue? Is there something that I ought to change in my browser settings in order to prevent it?
Thank you for any help.

Login authentication failed

I have been using phpmyadmin web-login for several years and never had any issues. Recently I haven't been able to login although I am able to login to our server by FTP. My mate is able to use the web-login. I have tried login in with Android phone, HP laptop, desktop (both win 7 prof.), several different browsers Chrome, Opera, Safari, explorer and firefox.
The message I get is: Authentication required. The server http://www.example.com:80 requires a username and password. The server says: phpMyAdmin localhost.
When I enter username and password the window disappear and reappears after a few seconds. I can see the status goes from connecting to waiting just before the window reappears.
No changes to the server has been made recently.
Any suggestions on how to solve the issue?

ssh between Nitrous.io boxes?

Has anyone else had luck trying to ssh between two Nitrous.io boxes? For example:
Box 1: Hosting mongo & rails server
Box 2: AngularJS app that talks to rails API
I'd like to be able to ssh from Box 2 to Box 1r so I can tail the logs over there.
You may ask, why would I do such a thing? Basically my main dev laptop is having memory issues so I've been using a chromebook. Its actually not bad at all except for the lack of a proper terminal.
I've added the public key from Box 2 to Box 1. But it won't let me connect. Has anyone had any luck with this?
Currently you can SSH into a Nitrous box, but establishing an SSH connection from a Nitrous box to another is not supported. You may want to look into using WebSockets instead.

Automate windows login using vb.net?

I am try to Develop a application that can control a PC using SMS with internet. also i turn on the PC power with a cell phone. but After i turn on the PC it will ask for username & password! I store this information on a local database (Eg:MS ACCESS). how can i get that username & password then log in to PC using a VB.NET Program?
First, to read the database your application will need to be already running before the user is logged in, like a system service. Can you do all the stuff you want to do within this service without logging in actually? This would spare you the horrors of...
Gina. At least up to XP to log into your computer without entering the password on the keyboard you can store the credentials in the registry (remove password login, autologin every time) or implement a custom gina.dll that can "simulate" a user. VB.Net cannot be used to write a custom gina.dll as far as I know, you will need to use C/C++ for this.
Added: At least in theory you could simulate keypresses via usb, remote control your local machine or something other to simulate a keyboard, anything might be better than Gina ; )

Integrated Windows Authentication showing wrong loggedin user

I have an asp.net 2.0 application running on IIS 6.0. I am using Integrated Windows Authentication. Some users have two network accounts, a personal account and an administrative account. The problem I am facing is that sometimes when they are logged in on the client side using their personal accounts, the logged in user appears at the server side as the admin account. I am retrieving the logged in user network id using System.Security.Principal.WindowsIdentity.GetCurrent().Name.
I suspect that their admin credentials are being cached somewhere and passed instead.
I had exactly this same problem. The web site was seeing me authenticate as my admin account even though I was logged in as my personal account.
It turns out that in Windows you can associate specific user names and passwords with particular sites. Once that is done, the integrated authentication through IE (and Chrome!) always uses those credentials. And, to make things easy, there is no obvious way to get to those settings through Internet Explorer's settings or options.
To fix your issue on Windows XP:
Click Start, Settings, Control Panel, User Accounts.
Click the Advanced tab.
Click Manage Passwords.
Find the entry in the list the corresponds to the site(s) where you're seeing this behavior. Remove it.
Credit where credit is due: This answer was taken almost word-for-word from an unnamed "Junior Member" at ObjectMix.
For Windows 7, use "Control Panel/Credential Manager" (also available via "Control Panel/User Accounts/Manage Your Credentials"). This lists all cached credentials, and lets you easily delete the ones which are causing problems.
When you use Remote Desktop to connect to a server and save your login credentials, it doesn't only save them for remote desktop, it also uses them for connecting through IE and, apparently, Chrome.
This is an old issue, and still valid. I just found if you save credentials while using mstsc (Remote Desktop), and try to use Integrated Windows Auth against any site that is CNAMEd to that server, it will use the saved credentials. Those will be the ones you need to delete.
My PC is locked down at work and IT have removed Credential Manager from the menu in Control Panel.
I was able to get around this by running cmdkey /list from the command line. In the list of "Currently stored credentials" I located the offending hostname and ran cmdkey /delete:[hostname] (no sq. brackets and replace hostname with your host), which fixed the issue for me.
According to this site, rundll32.exe keymgr.dll, KRShowKeyMgr will bring up the dialog to do this as well.
