Hi,
We are thinking about disabling the ssh daemon by default.
Reason is that it most desktop users do not use it all and it is just taking away memory for those, and also presenting an attack surface once the firewall is disabled.
Why not combine it with the firewall setting?
IIRC there is already the option to open the SSH port in the
network setup during installation so simply start sshd when the
port is opened there.
Or make an extra item in the network setup for SSH just like for
VNC (or combine those two).
