Q. I’ve HP-UX installed on my HP UX UNIX server. But I’m not able to start or restart the OpenSSH ssh server. How do I stop or restart sshd under HP-UX?
A. HP-UX Secure Shell uses Pluggable Authentication Module for password authentication. Server configuration file is located at /opt/ssh/etc/sshd_config.
HP-UX SSHD System Startup and Shutdown script:
/sbin/init.d/secsh {start|stop}
System startup configuration file
/etc/rc.config.d/sshd
Stop HP UX SSH Service
Type the command:
# /sbin/init.d/secsh stop
Start HP UX SSH Service
Type the command:
# /sbin/init.d/secsh start
