Answer: Yes you can! But you first need to install the ssh daemon:
ubuntu@ubuntu:~$ sudo apt-get install openssh-server
The server is started automatically after installing. To login remotely, you’ll need to set the password for ubuntu:
ubuntu@ubuntu:~$ sudo passwd ubuntu Enter new UNIX password: Retype new UNIX password: passwd: password updated successfully ubuntu@ubuntu:~$
…or create another user on the system:
ubuntu@ubuntu:~$ sudo adduser brammeleman Adding user `brammeleman‘… Adding new group `brammeleman’ (1000). Adding new user `brammeleman‘ (1000) with group `brammeleman’. Creating home directory `/home/brammeleman‘. Copying files from `/etc/skel’ Enter new UNIX password: Retype new UNIX password: passwd: password updated successfully Changing the user information for brammeleman Enter the new value, or press ENTER for the default Full Name []: Brammeleman Room Number []: Work Phone []: Home Phone []: Other []: Is the information correct? [y/N] y ubuntu@ubuntu:~$
From another box, you can now login to the system running the live cd. Use the ubuntu username with the password you set or use the newly created account.
