ssh localhost failed

Hello:

I am trying to make passwordless for ssh login into localhost, but I noticed that it always failed event I didn’t do anything for setting:


>ssh localhost
ssh: connect to host localhost port 22: Connection refused

However, I don’t have any problem ssh to other machine.

Does anybody have any idea? I am using openSUSE 13.2

thank you very much.

Because you probably did not start the sshd daemon.

Go to Yast Services Manager.
Enable the sshd service.
Start the sshd service.

Alternatively, at the command line (as root)


# systemctl start sshd.service
# systemctl enable sshd.service

The “start” will start the service for your current session.

The “enable” will cause the service to be automatically started on future boots.
