Bug#778913: openssh-server: init (at least systemd) doesn't notice when sshd fails to start and reports success
Package: openssh-server
Version: 1:6.7p1-3
Severity: important
Hi.
I've just tried that with systemd now,... starting the ssh service
there always yields in a success (status 0, green "OK"), even when
it actually failed to start.
Simply add some invalid config option to sshd_config, restart and
you'll se.
Only when you go in "deeper" like systemctl status ssh.service, you'll
see the actual error messages.
Cheers,
Chris.
