IPOSE 11.1.1.1 - SSH disabled by default? How to get it on? 1

[dbozttu]

I just spun up a new (replacement, long story) VM for my primary IPOSE server.

I've got everything done but I need to connect over SSH to it. I cannot. It's not listening on 22 at all. Even locally on the console ssh Administrator@localhost fails.

How do I turn this on? I've combed over everything in 7071 and 7070 to no avail.

Thank you all in advance for any help

It has to run.

Try
service sshd start

IP Office remote service
IP Office certificate check
CLI based call blocking
SCN fallback over PSTN

Give this a read. If I understand what your problem is, if it is a connection problem or a login problem. This is for a login issue.

Thank you both… it’s not either of those things, but I made some progress.

I downloaded the vhdx from avaya and followed instructions strictly. For some reason I have a corrupted sshd_config file out of the box. It’s filled with garbled crap when I look at it and sshd won’t start because of config file line 1.

Because I can’t connect in and transfer the file I am about to create it from scratch on the console using vi. Good times. I will post back if I verify it works

It worked. sshd_config was corrupt file, easy to see from console

Deleted and recreated clean version, restart server.. works

Thanks all
