[TW] Where do I put sshd overrides?
In the Good Old Days, the sshd configuration file was /etc/ssh/sshd_config. Since the switch to /usr/etc I believe this no longer works. Where should I put my sshd configuraton options now?

What makes you think so? If it exists, it is used.

You can put them in /etc/ssh/ssh_config.d. Just look in /usr/etc/ssh/sshd_config.

OK, thank you. I misunderstood and thought overrides had to go somewhere else now, eg /etc/ssh/sshd_config.d as you suggest below.

The defaults installed by rpm's have moved into /usr/etc but they idea is that overides stay in /etc so that they no longer need to be merged. -- Simon Lees (Simotek) http://simotek.net Emergency Update Team keybase.io/simotek SUSE Linux Adelaide Australia, UTC+10:30 GPG Fingerprint: 5B87 DB9D 88DC F606 E489 CEC5 0922 C246 02F0 014B

By overrides, do you mean only the local settings, so that the rest of default variables in /usr/etc/ssh/sshd_config still apply? Or does the file in /etc fully override everything said and not said in /usr/etc? I mean, systemd override are partial. -- Cheers / Saludos, Carlos E. R. (from 15.5 x86_64 at Telcontar)
