Few people would want to ssh into a live session. Root has no password. Live user has a known password, etc. I'm not sure why the installed system has sshd disabled, I would think it would be enabled on the installed version.

I was surprised to find that when all was installed that sshd service was disabled. Does anyone know the logic behind that choice? Each spin sig decides on their own which services they want enabled on their spin. That said perhaps because majority of desktop users dont even know what sshd is and leaving it on leaves them open to brute force attacks on a system that does not inform them when that happens. Administrators can always turn this on. JBG -- test mailing list test@lists.fedoraproject.org To unsubscribe: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/test
sshd and LiveCDs
I don't normally install from LiveCDs but I did so today to get KDE without GNOME. I was surprised to find that when all was installed that sshd service was disabled. Does anyone know the logic behind that choice? -- Programming today is a race between software engineers striving to build bigger and better idiot-proof programs, and the Universe trying to produce bigger and better idiots.
