Launch sshd automatically at boot time [SOLVED]

Post#1 by djt » 29 Nov 2015, 18:47

hi all,

I want sshd to be run automatically when connected on a network.

I know that I can generate keys as root by the ssh-keygen -A command and
I can start it with the absolute path by the /usr/sbin/sshd start command.

But I don't know how to automate this.

Thanks by advance.

chmod +x /etc/rc.d/rc.sshd

Any executable in this folder is run at startup with the start argument.

Great. Please add [SOLVED] to the title, and give the title a more meaningful name so that it might helps others with the same questions in the future.
