Hey,
sorry if this is kind of a stupid question but how I would I go about password protecting the root SSH access?

I tried logging in as the root user and setting a password for that user using the passwd command but either the password wasn't set for some reason or it isn't checked when logging in over SSH because I can still connect without a password.

There is a second user called admin but I was kind of scared about just changing random user passwords around because I don't know if that could end up with my reader bricked.

On an unrelated sidenote I can confirm for any potential future readers that these tools still seem to work on a Kobo Clara 2E.
