Hi guys.
I just installed Solaris 10 and want to enable ssh on it So that i can remotely use it from another location.
I read a post on this forum an it was written that SSH is enabled by default.
I did a ps -ef | grep ssh and nothing showed up meaning that it isnt running.
I even tried accessing /etc/lib/ssh but this directory dosent exist.
Help plz !
Regards,
Junaid
What is the output of:
svcs ssh
Did you try starting it?
svcadm enable ssh
scvs return
scvs: Pattern 'ssh' dosent match any isntances.
and
svcadm returns
svcadm: Pattern 'ssh' dosent match any instances.
Perhaps you chose to skip it during installation?
Which version (x86 or Sparc) of Solaris and which media type did you use for installation (ISO file, CD, DVD, etc.).
You may need to access that media and run pkgadd to install SSH.
I have no idea about that. I just did a standard installation.
Im using x86 and used a CD to install. Will I find the required packages in the media ?
system SUNWsshcu SSH Common, (Usr)
system SUNWsshdr SSH Server, (Root)
system SUNWsshdu SSH Server, (Usr)
system SUNWsshr SSH Client and utilities, (Root)
system SUNWsshu SSH Client and utilities, (Usr)
are the packages I believe. They are normally a part of the distribution. Unless somebody did something unusual on a base install /usr/lib/ssh should have been there.
try:
pkginfo | grep ssh
and see what shows up.
Can you paste the output of below commands?
Svcs -xv
Svcs -a|grep -a ssh
Who -r
Svcs -a|grep -i network
$ Svcs -xv
ksh: Svcs: not found
$ Svcs -a | grep -a ssh
grep: illegal option -- a
Usage: grep -hblcnsviw pattern file . . .
ksh: Svcs: not found
$ Who -r
ksh: Who: not found
$ Svcs -a | grep -i network
ksh: Svcs: not found
I apologize for the typo, all the letters are lower case, try these
svcs -xv
svcs -a | grep -i ssh
who -r
svcs -a | grep -i network
svcs includes "grep" and all smf services are in lowercase so this would be equivalent:
svcs "*ssh*"
svcs "*network"
Become root
run the following codes:
svcs -a | grep -i ssh
What does it say? Does it give you the FMRI? if it does, is it disable,offline or maintenance?
Need this information to proceed with this fix.
Waiting. Please post the out put of the command svcs -a | -i ssh
This has already be done, see post #3. Unless the OP made a typo, which is unlikely with "ssh", it seems the ssh service has been deleted from this machine.
Edit: Well, either the OP made a typo or reinstalled: http://www.unix.com/solaris/204497-problem-ssh.html\#post302720267
