That I understand, but the steps I followed gave "sudo ssh root@192.168.2.2" so that's what I tried. Just plain "ssh root@192.168.2.2" did nothing...

Do you mean that the one key in my own ~/.ssh/know_hosts file is causing the problem? I could back it up and get rid of it. I am not actually sure why there is a key in that file, though. Is it created by VirtualBox by chance?

I'd rather not use the ssh key thing anyway, but regardless, I get asked for a root password for the device, and nothing I type in works, and just hitting the enter key doesn't work (tried that first, as per instructions). The readmefirst.txt file in the usbNetwork hack says that no password is needed over the usb0 wired in connection, but that seems very mistaken.

Thanks,
Matthew
