ok im trying to run the service and start using ssh in port forwarding but i keep getting this message
Redirecting to /bin/systemctl start ssh.service
Failed to issue method call: Unit ssh.service failed to load: No such file or directory. See system logs and 'systemctl status ssh.service' for details.

Have you installed the appropriate SSH Server package in Fedora? You can use Yum to do this.

which one? There are alot of them...

Hard to tell without a list. My recommendations would be on the one named something like "openssh-server". It really should be installed by default however, can you check if /usr/sbin/sshd exists?

it exists

and openssh-server is installed and updated
but i still get the error message "Redirecting to /bin/systemctl start ssh.service
Failed to issue method call: Unit ssh.service failed to load: No such file or directory. See system logs and 'systemctl status ssh.service' for details.
"

Please check the output of "ls /lib/systemd/system/*ssh*.service"

*ssh*.service does not exist, but i found sshd.service and it has nothing about output

Try executing this as root:

Code: Select all

/bin/systemctl start sshd.service

went to the next line but still getting that status is "Redirecting to /bin/systemctl status ssh.service
ssh.service
Loaded: error (Reason: No such file or directory)
Active: inactive (dead)"
and i tried ssh im ip address and request timed out
and i tried stating service again and
"Redirecting to /bin/systemctl start ssh.service
Failed to issue method call: Unit ssh.service failed to load: No such file or directory. See system logs and 'systemctl status ssh.service' for details."

Please notice that my command is for "sshd.service" not "ssh.service".
Can you try with the command I gave?

Code: Select all

/bin/systemctl start sshd.service

i did it went to the next line and didnt appear to do anyting and when i look at the status still comes as inactive

but i also did status of sshd and it comes as active

Your computer should have SSH operational then.
Running "ssh username@localhost" should yield a response (assuming no firewall interferes).

i just did that, and it worked and no i dont have any firewalls running at this time
ssh Last_Gunslinger@localhost worked but ssh my router didnt work
