Failed to read ACL on /var/log/journal/ operation not supported

Environment

    Intel® Quartus® Prime Pro Edition
BUILT IN - ARTICLE INTRO SECOND COMPONENT
Description

SSH access to SOC systems running Angstrom may fail if a root password has been set on the SOC system,  and the error above may be shown in the system message log / journal.

This is due to a problem in sshd if a root password has been set, and the default sshd configuration is in use.

To resolve this problem edit the ssh daemon configuration file /etc/ssh/sshd_config and update the line:  “PermitEmptyPasswords yes”  to “PermitEmptyPasswords no” ,  then reboot the board.

The “PermitEmptyPasswords yes” setting allows SSH to run with no root password set (the default), but causes problems if a root password has been set. 

This is scheduled to be documented in a future release of the SoC EDS Handbook.
