[LUG]Re: ssh remote login to a openBSD system

 

Hi Sebastian

Thanks for this, I will create another ssh-keypair so I can upload the public key to the OpenBSD server I have access to.

Thanks again

Paul

Dear Paul,

Yes; OpenSSH is created by the same team as OpenBSD, so in this case it's exactly 
the same procedure on Linux as on OpenBSD.

Note that most Linux distributions use a different service management daemon to the 
traditional one used by the BSD operating systems. So if you can't connect, make 
sure that the OpenSSH server is running on the remote server; instructions are in 
this manual page:

<https://man.openbsd.org/rc.d>

Hope that helps!

Best wishes,

Sebastian
