ssh connection - closed

KazioW

Hi, I'm trying to connect by ssh, but it couldn't - Remote closed the connection.
I see, that dropbear (ssh daemon) is working (netstat show that).
The same error (remote closed the connection) I have, when trying to connect from batocera machine from command line, by ssh localhost.
I found errors in /vat/log/messages:
Failed moving key file to /etc/dropbear/dropbear_ecds_host_key: Operation not permited
Exit before auth: Couldn't read or generate hostkey etc/dropbear/dropbear_ecds_host_key:
So how to solve keys problem?

When I was trying to manualy create key (/usr/bin/dropbearkey -t ecdsa -f /etc/dropbear/dropbear_ecds_host_key), I saw:
"Generating...
Failed to moving key file to /etc/dropbear/dropbear_ecds_host_key: Operation not permited"
But I'm root, and have write access to that directory (cat touch /etc/dropbear/dropbear_ecds_host_key) - strange.
I created key in other directory:
/usr/bin/dropbearkey -t ecdsa -f /var/log/dropbear_ecds_host_key
and move it to right place:
mv /var/log/dropbear_ecds_host_key /etc/dropbear/
Now I can connect by ssh. But I thing, there is something wrong with config of batocera-5.13-x86_64-20180201.img
