Topic: Dont buy miners from lketc.com Locked out SSH root to user, Stealing your hashes - page 3. (Read 10861 times)

What the actual fuck. Good thing you brough this up. I can't see why a company like them would do this. It would only result to negative reputation.

问候 Lisa

while Lisa only has one post (time of writing) is highly trustworthy here, she is more involved with bitcoin than people may think

Hehehe........ Lisa here   

lketc still do not offer me the password of the SSH.   

But I found a link related to the SD card in other forums.

I hope this can help those bitcoin miner users who want the original SSH to fix the SD card problem.

Please click "refresh the log" first, then "real time monitor".
 
At the error page, please change 0 into 1, and click auto refresh, and wait for a few minutes. I will be ok.

Excited to talk with you here !!!

 

Thanks its good to know it wasn't targeted at out order in particular or any foul play in-between them and us (paranoia again).

I'm sure your guy just did not have the info, i skip the reseller now and go direct to them for support so when they responded in the Skype message above it was secret, instantly i knew it was lketc foul play in hand.

Yes they are stupid the 100 rigs is a lot, but a fraction of whats to come so they have only chopped off their nose to spite there face.

yes dd was going slow, running at bs=32 is better, but I'm now using apple pi-baker and its writing them under 9mins so take note anyone who needs to flash there sd and is on mac.

i have no experience with spondoolies, but from now will only get miners from people we can see and speak to in person,

Interesting...

I had the same problem, miners would not start at all after changing the pool info and I was locked out from SSH. I thought it was the reseller, who changed the SSH password intentionally, cause he was refusing to give me the access. But now I feel, it could be the conspiracy theory Maybe the guy just simply did not have that info?

Anyway, they can have us for idiots, no problem, it won't make us idiots at the end. What does not kill you, makes you wiser, right?

Sorry for your 100 rigs, setting up just 2, took me more then 4 hours. I can imagine how pissed off you are, just let it go. Do not buy from them anymore. Personally, I am planing to stick with spondoolies for a while. They look so honest, I can't help myself

Im highly surprised it hasnt, i guess most people dont care as long as there ok, while been involved in the BTC community i have done my best to be a upstanding citizen, never ripped anyone off or even left them feeling hard done by even if it meant putting my hand in my own pocket, yet i guess good things just dont come to good people so i feel like joining the dark side, it seem only selfish basterds (such as M.kerpeles) get all the riches in this game


Thanks i was hoping the squinty eyed lketcs would respond but i guess they wont

update


i got hold of some card readers so now buring three cards burning through my air book for the past several hours at a ridiculous 1422520/secs only done a gb per card and the img is 7gb this wont be done in a night.

any advice on quicker ways to do this appreciated including BTC tips

FUCK YOU LKETC SQUINTY EYED PRICKS


ps
sorry for the swearing, but feel my pain btc world

much love <3's

Agreed this needs a bump for sure..

I've had to write to 5 pi machines before and I got bored after the second one, I can't image writing to 100.

Wow that's some nice investigation work. Thanks for bringing this to people's attention. Why doesn't this thread generate more interest?

Want proof? ask me and the 5 guys who had to unscrew 100miners today after been racked, now 50 SD cards between two people and staying up all night flashing them 1 SD card at a time, that takes what 30mins/45mins each, you do the math im up all night, and how much money lost in non mining time?

75* miners unscrewed for sd cards to be removed -> http://imgur.com/2jbnw9B

100 * miners on rack not green light because theres no SD card to boot and miner -> http://imgur.com/2jbnw9B,VGFslyd,ZtbwnrT#1

50 * SD cards (my home work tonight) -> http://imgur.com/2jbnw9B,VGFslyd,ZtbwnrT#2 (ironically my 'lucky' strikes pack of 20 got burned through within hours now on my 3rd pack today)

1 * conversation with lketc.miners -> http://imgur.com/O2eL4Ok - Notice how the contact request is pending? yes i got deleted from there skype after requesting the ssh password.

1 * convo with a lketc reseller stating there managment were refused SSH (and one of the only Chinese people i genuinely like and trust apart from jack from lightingASIC) -> http://imgur.com/CKvbKXY

Also look at my bitcointalk history at how i have tried to protect there customers from a bunch of scammers impersonating them, in several posts. and this is how im thanked

i also spoke to several high profile resellers of theres in china who's head of department rang lketc and they refused to even give it to them.

I've long thought that we are stupid blindly putting Chinese hardware in our homes without thoroughly auditing what is installed you never know what could be sniffing your network traffic and relaying that back to china or a literal trojan horse, introducing something on your network that you belive is good, but later later fucks you in the ass, but put this down to maybe a bit of paranoia, laughed it off and continued my zoot. but im right theres a reason why when i retuned to the farm this morning to find the 25miners we set up last night mining fine to be mining on lketc default details again. or simply paying the chinese to build a botnet against us in our own homes!

This company are a bunch of con artist with a pretty face who smile while they fuck you in the ass.

here is the default ISO before the scumbags locked out the SSH

https://mega.co.nz/#!tc4nzZTQ!IgkpktyE-Ad9XIfQpxXJlF4CEQ-1SKp_BpT1X9mV6mk

SSH access is default rasp pi ssh details and feel free to security audit it, theres nothing in there (i can see/ put in there) that will cause risk to you or any other computers on your network.

Once i have these cards flashed and the farm running, i will exploit one of these locked SSD cards and see what other shit they are shipping out to peoples networks.

until then

BUY NOTHING FROM LKETC.COM

the only reason they would not release the SSH password is because they have something to hide simple.

If the above is true this post needs a bump. What the fuck.

I would highly recommend to everyone not to buy one single bitcoin miner from Lketc.com

We are in the process of setting up 100 machines we just bought from them, i have spent the last 2 weeks while waiting for their ridiculous slow shipping to recieve the miners, in that time i built a management interface to easily manage all miners from a web UI.

This management system needs to use ssh as part of the control mechnaism, using a dragon miner i had a few months i based the system on that, we just setup the farm and in process of setting up the machines but we can not ssh into the raspberry pis

the default ssh password should be

user:pi@host
password:raspberry

they have now changed this and there skype support guy said they will not tell it to me because its a secret. I think this is disgraceful i own this computer outright therefore should have full root access to the system.

i do not want some slinty eyed chinese person having full ssh control over my farm and £100sK pounds worth of equipment.

Luckily i have an old ISO which has the old SSH setting but it is incredibly time consuming to burn 100 new iso.

I would not trust this company at all who will not give you root access to the server or to see what is hidden on the OS.

AVOID THIS COMPANY UNTILL THEY SORT THIS OUT
