Backtrack basics: 7. Starting SSH service

If we want to login remotely to our machine, we can use ssh. For using SSH tunnels we will need this service as well. First we need to generate the public and private keys to be used with the connection:

sshd-generate


If this is done, we can start the SSH service:

/etc/init.d/ssh start


The we can login and verify if it runs:

netstat -antp
