Manually Starting the Secure Shell Server Daemon

To manually start the Secure Shell daemon, type the command /usr/local/sbin/sshd2.

Note: If the installation was successfully completed, sshd is a symbolic link to sshd2. If you also have ssh1 installed, the ssh2 installation process modifies the existing link. If ssh1 compatibility is desired, sshd2 can be configured to execute sshd1 when the client only supports ssh1. However, it is recommended to use sshd2 because sshd may start an OpenSSH server.

The sshd2 daemon can be configured using command-line options or a configuration file. Command-line options override values specified in the configuration file.
