Thank you @NiLuJe. Mistaking the IP would be priceless But, no. Two machines w/ two different IPs, which I can access concurrently via SSH. On the other hand, yes, I have checked out to see that I use OpenSSH.

In the meantime, I have updated Voyage to @18981. Works fine. I will switch back to dropbear on Oasis, back up my @18289 files, update it to @18981, and give it another try.

On the other hand, since I already have my public key registered in the /mnt/us/usbnet/etc/authorized_keys file, I should not be asked for a password in the first place. Am I mistaken?
