Installing OpenSSH Server and Enabling sshd
A default Oracle Linux installation includes the openssh
and
openssh-server
packages, but the sshd
service isn't
enabled by default.
-
If the packages aren't installed, run the following command:
sudo dnf install openssh openssh-server
-
Start the
sshd
service and configure it to start following a system reboot:sudo systemctl start sshd sudo systemctl enable sshd
You can set sshd
configuration options for features such as Kerberos authentication, X11 forwarding, and port forwarding in the /etc/ssh/sshd_config
file. For more information, see the sshd(8)
and sshd_config(5)
manual pages.
