Yes my incorrect assumption was due to the fact that sshd came pre-installed with the OS unlike plex that came with its own service file or Jackett that I had to create the service file manually. Sshd is a program like any other that gets started by systemd. I appreciate the clarification!
That makes a lot of sense. I actually wrote my own unit files for Jackett and to autostart a virtual machine and moved them into multi-user target wants using the enable command. I guess my thought was that by adding the unit file to systemd it made the program part of systemd in a way but now that I think more about it, saying any of these programs are part of systemd doesn’t actually make sense. Just because sshd came pre-installed with Ubuntu doesn’t make it part of systemd any more than plex is part of systemd.
Thanks for helping me understand!
Is sshd really not part of systemd? I seem to remember needing to run systemctl restart sshd after making changes to the sshd config file but it’s been a while since I’ve done that.
I also use systemd to automatically start plex, sonarr, radarr, transmission, and maybe a few other things as well and if they need to be restarted I’d use a similar command on Ubuntu. Or I’d run systemctl status plexmediaserver to see if it was running correctly.
I’m not an expert though so maybe I’m doing it wrong or using the wrong terminology.
Redial? What is this, 1992?
The meme could also say to hit *69 which would imply that the mother was the last one to call him.
