sshd at boot

[Xam_nl]

I've installed knoppix 3.2 a few days ago, completely configgured everything. I accidently set the "start sshd" option during the install to NO

Now i want to start sshd at boot time but can't get it working. :cry:

Tried by adding sshstart into the /etc/init.d/bootmisc.sh but it requeres a enter :(

Someone help me out Thx!

Add "sshd" not "start sshd"

[Dave_Bechtel]

' ls /etc/rc5.d/*ssh* -l '
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 13 Mar 22 15:45 /etc/rc5.d/S20ssh -> ../init.d/ssh

Howto:
' cd /etc/rc5.d; ln ../init.d/ssh S20ssh -sfn '

--Interesting, there is no "Kill" entry for it... (correction: yes there is, in runlevels 0 and 6)

--Don't forget to take your mod out of bootmisc.sh.

--If you *really* want to set up a bootmisc, this is what I did:

' ln /etc/init.d/boot.local /etc/rc5.d/S98bootlocal -sfn '

--Then you make a script called /etc/init.d/boot.local; here's mine:

#BEGIN boot.local

#!/bin/bash
echo '= Executing boot.local...'
#source $0
# Can you say "infinite loop!?"

source /etc/profile.local

#/usr/sbin/gpm -m /dev/input/mice -R raw -t imps2
/usr/sbin/gpm -m /dev/psaux -t imps2
# -R raw

My bash/shell scripting is not upto full speed, yet . . .

So whats the best way and place to edit bootmisc.sh to accomplish this since I made the same wimpconvert newbie mistake and chose not to start SSH when I did the HD install.

I managed to get Samaba to work to share the MP3's and html sources for my site(s) that are on the converted box to the rest of my HLAN. This is my minor accomplishment of the day.

Thanks in advance.

dpkg-reconfigure ssh as root.

Thanx for the Info, it works fine now.
But the problem now is that the boot.local file isn't loaded at boot time so i still have to use bootmisc.sh as boot script.

Ok, I know some of you might not like this but an easy way to manage services via the gui is to install gnome control center. It will let you easily control what services start at what runlevels.

apt-get install gnome-control-center

Of cource you may need some gnome stuff installed first. I found that everything works in the gnome control center except the networking configuration tool...at least on my box.

' ln /etc/init.d/boot.local /etc/rc5.d/S98bootlocal -sfn ' and reboot. That should fixit.
