Forking the whole file can by avoided by overriding just the desired part. In that case, using "systemctl edit ssh" or running those as root would have been enough: mkdir -p /etc/systemd/system/ssh.service.d/ cat << EOF >> /etc/systemd/system/ssh.service.d/override.conf [Service] ExecStop=/usr/bin/pkill sshd EOF systemctl daemon-reload > 3. Edit /etc/systemd/system/ssh.service, add ExecStop=/usr/bin/killall sshd > to [Service] section: Unfortunately, killing every sshd instances is dangerous. Anyone stopping the service remotely would be locked out. I think that another service would be needed to cleanup SSH sessions on shutdown before they are forcibly killed. Regards, Simon
