How to configure SSH Server

In Ubuntu 24.04LTS Desktop, unlike the Server distribution, SSH connections are not configured. We only need install OpenSSH server and configure it as a working service

Update system repositories and packages:

sudo apt update && sudo apt upgrade -y

Install Open SSH server:

sudo apt install openssh-server -y

Run ssh service:

sudo systemctl start ssh

Check status:

sudo systemctl status ssh

OpenSSH status

Set start after the system run:

sudo systemctl enable ssh
