systemd-ssh-issue systemd systemd-ssh-issue 1 systemd-ssh-issue Generator for SSH login prompt drop-ins /usr/lib/systemd/systemd-ssh-issue /usr/lib/systemd/systemd-ssh-issue Description systemd-ssh-issue is a small tool that generates a /run/issue.d/50-ssh-vsock.issue drop-in file in case AF_VSOCK support is available in the kernel and the VM environment. The file contains brief information about how to contact the local system via SSH-over-AF_VSOCK, in particular it reports the system's AF_VSOCK CID. The file is typically read and displayed by agetty8 on console or serial login prompts. This tool is automatically used by systemd-ssh-generator8 in the AF_VSOCK socket units it generates. Options The following options are understood: Generates the issue file. This command has no effect if called on systems lacking AF_VSOCK support. Removes the issue file if it exists. Changes the path to the issue file to write to/remove. If not specified, defaults to /run/issue.d/50-ssh-vsock.issue. If specified as empty string or - writes the issue file contents to standard output. Exit status On success, 0 is returned, a non-zero failure code otherwise.
