How do i fix > it so I can do the things I want to do? Two things. Admin or root has to enable and then start sshd systemctl enable sshd systemctl start sshd What does systemctl status sshd show. Note: The current setup allows for ssh to work with regular users, but ssh with the root account is blocked completely. It can be enabled, but it requires some steps. Note:2 If you enable sshd and system has access from internet, you will probable get hits from people trying to login, so monitor logs. > > -- > Bob Goodwin - Zuni, Virginia, USA > FEDORA-32/64bit LINUX XFCE Fastmail POP3 > _______________________________________________ > users mailing list -- users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx > To unsubscribe send an email to users-leave@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx > Fedora Code of Conduct: https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/project/code-of-conduct/ > List Guidelines: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines > List Archives: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx +------------------------------------------------------------+ Michael D.
