[Bug 68274] Re: please start ssh for single user mode

2008-03-07 Thread Andreas Jellinghaus
I don't see how your reply has anything to do with the bug report. Servers reachable via network only have a huge problem, if they are booted into "single" user mode. Without any console or noone near a console such a server is dead and the only way to "fix" the problem would be a hard power cyc

@Andreas, As I said above, the single user mode is expressly designed to prohibit ssh access, and for good reason. Dustin's intuitive answer is right on target. However, if you want to have ssh access in single user mode for your own installation, simply execute this command and reboot: $ sudo e
