Peter,
On irc, you said:
07:12< centipete> hello, i have problems getting /etc/ssh/files into my
image. i have copied them like many other files
into chroot_local-includes. but these files are the
only ones that dont appear in the build image. any
ideas?
And we responded:
07:23< SynrG> there is a boot script which mucks with ssh ...
07:23< SynrG> i think recently this was made configurable so it doesn't
get walked on
07:23< dba> live-config only regenerates /etc/ssh/ssh_host_key*
07:24< dba> (and live-build removes /etc/ssh/ssh_host_key* from the
image during build)
07:24< dba> otherwise, ssh is not touched.
Daniel (dba) said above which ones live-config regenerates. I find in
your config:
$ ls config/chroot_local-includes/etc/ssh/
moduli ssh_config sshd_config ssh_host_dsa_key ssh_host_dsa_key.pub
ssh_host_rsa_key ssh_host_rsa_key.pub
Well, the ssh_host_*_key files are exactly the ones Daniel said are
regenerated. You said nothing in response to that, so I assumed you had
processed that and were complaining about some *other* /etc/ssh/ files
that weren't being customized properly. Now, having seen your actual
config, I wonder if my assumption was incorrect.
Even so, I'm not sure what's happening here. It looks to me like
live-config (even 2.x for Squeeze) only regenerates these files if they
don't exist. But maybe I'm misreading something in the code ...
If you need further help with this, please follow up to the list so we
can all help:

Feel free to quote any or all of the above as your starting point to
