I am quite surprised that this argument has grown the way it has done. The availability of sshd makes a very convenient management tool if you have more than one machine and need access between them. It is not exactly difficult to add a note in the release notes on how to switch it off if it is not needed (service sshd stop/chkconfig sshd off) and that is the end of it. Even for a new user I would hope that each person doing an install would read the release notes - there are a number of other issues that could bite if this was not done before the install went ahead - even for experienced users of prior versions. I would find it inconvenient not having sshd running - and in the livecd intall I seem to remember that sshd is off by default? Hence the simpler install for perhaps more rookie users might be via livecd instead of the other methods? -- fedora-test-list mailing list fedora-test-list@xxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-test-list
