That's too much work. Yes, correct, an ssh server that's on by default but with password auth disabled is pointless, because it's completely unusable. There's no point in requiring people to fiddle with it to make it work. Either you leave it in a usable state by default or you disable it completely by default.
How about 'on' by default, but a page in first boot turns if 'off' by default? So the gurus who don't see firstboot, but will liikely need ssh will have it on. But the newbies who don't know what ssh is, will leave firstboot to turn it off, while those of us inbetween will have the choice. -- Fedora Core 6 and proud -- fedora-devel-list mailing list fedora-devel-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-devel-list
