My guess is that this is not meant for systems you'd ssh into. That this particular feature is designed specifically for use on laptops.

  It's a good guess. The first sentence of Lennart answer to this question is : > Well. Homed is intended primarily for client machines, i.e. laptops and thus machines you typically ssh from a lot more than ssh to if you follow what i mean. andrerm left it out of his quote. He also left this part out. It's about openssh and pam : > Maybe they solve this eventually but lets see. In the meantime you at least get a friendly msg explaining the situation briefly and what to do.

    That he doesn't use it is his problem. I run sshd on all my laptops and regularly ssh into a machine in another room.

      Man its almost as if the software wasn't specifically designed for you and nobody is forcing you to use it.

  Huh? I ssh into my laptops all the time...

    Not anymore you heathen.

    It's only a problem if you want to use an encrypted home and ssh into your laptop while not logged locally. I mean, no one likes the current situation but it was deemed an acceptable trade off considering there is a work around.
