I run several OpenVZ VPS servers from 4 different providers and last month I lost ssh access to all of them after doing an update. I have never had such problem before and I update regularly. I don't have access to KVM to check it.
1 lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 4 Feb 3 15:16 /var/run -> /run 2 tmpfs on /run type tmpfs (rw,nosuid,nodev,mode=755) 3 $ cat /usr/lib/tmpfiles.d/sshd.conf d /var/run/sshd 0755 root root 4 I will check it in a few days, once I get one of my nodes out of production and do a fresh install. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to openssh in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1814124 Title: sshd does not start after update Status in openssh package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Bug description: After processing system update by: apt-get clean && apt-get autoclean && apt-get autoremove && apt-get update && apt-get upgrade && apt-get dist-upgrade && reboot ssh server stops starting at system boot.
