    Curt,

    Why not just setup a cron job to run every few minutes and if the SSHD
    daemon is down, restart it. Or you could simply create a script and stick it
    in a continuous loop, sleep every few minutes, then check the daemon that
    way.

    If sshd is not running there isn't a way to restart it unless you have
    physical access to the system, or console access via a terminal
    concentrator.

    Subject: Restarting sshd v3.6.1 on Solaris

    I have ssh 3.6.1p1 running on Solaris 2.5/6/7/8 and 9. Aside from walking
    over to the host and issuing /etc/init.d/sshd start, how do restart sshd
    if 1) it fails and 2) you modify the configuration file and need to
    restart it on a remote host?

    Thanks for the help,

    Mc
