- Using the dropbear SSH server with runit's services supervision
- ---------------------------------------------------------------
- The dropbear SSH server is perfectly suited to be run under runit's
- service supervision, and this package already has prepared an adequate
- service directory. Follow these steps to enable the dropbear service
- using the runit package.
- If not yet installed on your system, install the runit package, and make
- sure its service supervision is enabled (it's by default)
- # apt-get install runit
- Make sure the dropbear service normally handled through the sysv init
- script is stopped
- # /etc/init.d/dropbear stop
- Create the system user ``dropbearlog'' which will run the logger service,
- and own the logs
- # adduser --system --home /var/log/dropbear --no-create-home dropbearlog
- Create the log directory and make the newly created system user the owner
- of this directory
- # mkdir -p /var/log/dropbear && chown dropbearlog /var/log/dropbear
- Optionally adjust the configuration of the dropbear service by editing the
- run script
- # vi /etc/dropbear/run
- Finally enable the service through runit's update-service(8) program, the
- service will be started within five seconds, and automatically at boot
- time, and the sysv init script will automatically be disabled; see the
- sv(8) program for information on how to control services handled by runit.
- See the svlogd(8) program on how to configure the log service.
- # update-service --add /etc/dropbear
- Optionally check the status of the service a few seconds later
- # sv status dropbear
