The service restart doesn't work on 3.5u3 you have to kill the service via kill -HUP | grep inetd or something like that. Lots of documentation on doing it, and I have it enabled on all my boxes in production.

Enter the password for the root login. 4) Edit the file inetd.conf and find the line that begins with #ssh and remove the #. 6) restart the inetd services by running the command /sbin/services.sh restart On Tue, Jan 6, 2009 at 7:45 PM, Greg Mulholland <g...@krystaltek.com> wrote: Using SSH is different to having a service console.
