These have been enabled with the Include parameter in ssh_config and sshd_confg. etc/ssh/sshd_config.d/*.conf : server configuration file etc/ssh/ssh_config.d/*.conf : client configuration file Starting with Bullseye, configuration files will also be read from the following subfolders : The main configuration files are in the directory /etc/ssh : The server allows to connect remotely and gets installed by running as root: Normally the client is installed by default. Then cut and paste of the commands below should work. So, if you want to use the recipes below, first set these variables to the remote computer name and the user name on that remote computer. In this document we'll be using the OpenSSH command suite, it will also be assumed that the following two variables are defined: SSH replaces the unencrypted telnet, rlogin and rsh and adds many features.
