Hello SimpleMining Dev,
Question, I know recently you have advised people not to use SSH aka not to open ssh ports.
But honestly ssh is perfect for live viewing of multiple rigs so i have a question.
I went ahead and changed the root and miner passwords as to prevent an attacker changing my rigs from mining something else.
would this cause issues for simpleOS , say from updating or anything like that ?
To be frank your website version of viewing the rig is not even an option as its missing the ability to watch it live and to give it command line changes aka + - on dual mining and so on or even clicking S for stats.
so please let me know if changing the password is an issue for you (DEV) and if it would cause issues down the line in term of you pushing updates and so on.

No problem, you can change ssh password.
When you change to both account to something strong like 12+ characters then its ok.
It wont break anything.

The console view i have in plans - upgrading this feature to have much faster and more live status there.
For longer perspective i have also in plans giving possibility to use something like web integrated ssh console for each rig but i will need much more time to make this right and secure.
