I thought most distros come with SSH standard? When I spin up Debian and centOS VMs I don't have to do anything special before I can SSH into them.

- orange_tee 6y agossh client, but not ssh server? or am I mistaken?
- netizen-9748 6y agoIf I can SSH into the guest from the host, the guest must be running an SSH server iirc
- orange_tee 6y agoIt would certainly be the easiest explanation if sshd was already running from the get go. But I find it weird. Usually it is either absent or switched off by default.
- netizen-9748 6y agoI need to make a correction, as apparently I do these things on autopilot. Debian 10 does have the option for SSH server to be installed on first setup which needs to be selected manually. Haven't installed centOS in a while so I may be wrong about that as well.
