That's what I've thought, but it am puzzled that I cannot actually produce this situation (when removing the script). That, and the fact that Fedora or SUSE don't have this indicate that this was dealt with by something else in the meantime. > However, I have not used Ubuntu in many years (this is 2017, the bug > report was 2007) and I am no longer in a position to help you. No worries, it was a long shot anyway. Thanks for your fast response!

(Yes, some of us really do want to be able to remotely log in to our laptops after we bring them home and they roam onto the home WiFi network etc.) Right now there is no sshd script in /etc/network/* but it would be trivial to create one and add it to the package. For sshd, it would be simplest just to restart the daemon.
