Bug#1103773: openssh-server: systemd unit to After=network-online.target



* Martin-Éric Racine <martin-eric.racine@iki.fi> [250421 14:42]:
The systemd unit current launches:

After=network.target remote-fs.target nss-lookup.target

This doesn't guarantee that we have acquired an IP address (see: https://www.freedesktop.org/wiki/Software/systemd/NetworkTarget/).

Because of this, binding to an address using e.g. 'ListenAddress 192.168.1.12' will make sshd fail to launch if the interface hasn't acquired an IP yet.

network-online.target should probably be added to the above to positively ensure that we've acquired an IP before sshd launches.

network-online.target makes no guarantees on addresses, or even the specific address configured in sshd.conf.

If it helps in your local setup, I'd encourage you to use a local override file.

Chris
