I don't know what triggers the need to do this. This was a clean install in a static enviroment, nothing was changed. One possibility is that there was a problem with my second NIC for the internal network and I replaced the NIC so that might have caused it. In anycase, this seems to be needed to be documented as it shouldn't hurt to run it twice to fix the login ssh issues with Client logins. At this reading, it appears that there were three current install enviroments where the user had to use the command to get logins working. -- edubuntu-devel mailing list edubuntu-devel@lists.ubuntu.com http://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/edubuntu-devel
