Troubleshooting • Can't ssh to RPi Zero W running Bullseye headless

$

Hi all,
I did a manual headless install of Bullseye, then edited userconf.txt per the instructions at:
https://www.raspberrypi.com/documentati ... spberry-pi

Having done that, I cannot log in. ssh issues a warning:
ssh myacctAB@111.222.333.444
Please note that SSH may not work until a valid user has been set up.

though I'm not sure how ssh would know if there was a valid account set up or not, and any account name can be entered without any warning that the account name does not exist.

I missed the part of instructions that say user names must be all lower case. I tried to log in using the account name, but with only lower case letters (so myacctab in my example) in case the system just converts everything to lower case - did not work.

I have noticed that every time I run
openssl passwd -6

the resulting hash is different, though the password I enter is always the same.

Is there a graceful way to shutdown without being able to log in?
