How to enable SSHD on FreeBSD server / jail

To enable the SSH daemon (sshd) on a FreeBSD server or jail, follow these steps:

1. Connect to the system via SSH as the root user.

2. Run the following command to enable the sshd service:

sysrc sshd_enable=YES

3. Start the sshd service by running the following command:

service sshd start

The SSH daemon will now be running on the system, and you should be able to connect to it using an SSH client.

If you want to make sure that the sshd service starts automatically whenever the system boots, run the following command:

sysrc sshd_enable=YES

This will add the sshd_enable=YES line to the /etc/rc.conf file, which tells the system to start the sshd service at boot time.

Note: If the sshd service is not running, you may need to check the logs for any error messages. The logs are typically located in the /var/log directory.
