To run sshd2 as a started task, use a JCL procedure such as SSHD2 (shown below), by default USER.PROCLIB(SSHD2) (defined in 0.2 SETO).

SSHD2:

//SSHD2   PROC OPTS='',PORT=
//TECTIA  EXEC PGM=BPXBATSL,
//             REGION=0M,
//             TIME=NOLIMIT,
//             PARM=('PGM /opt/tectia/sbin/sshd2 -F &PORT    
//              &OPTS')
//STDENV   DD  DSN=<HLQ>.V650.PARMLIB(SSHENV),DISP=SHR
//STDOUT   DD  SYSOUT=*
//*STDERR   DD  SYSOUT=*
//STDIN    DD  DUMMY
//         PEND

Note that when sshd2 is run as a started task, the -F (foreground) option is required to prevent sshd2 from detaching itself as a daemon. If sshd2 is run as a started task without the -F option, it cannot be modified.

Start the server with the following operator command:

===> s sshd2 

The sshd2 job starts.

In the Tectia SSH Assistant ISPF application you can manage SSH tasks via submenu 4 TASK. Started tasks may be started, stopped and modified here, provided that the user is properly authorized and that the started task procedure has been generated and installed.

You can control the SSH server (sshd2) via submenu 4.1 TSRV.

Figure 3.1. Tectia SSH Assistant ISPF application - Tasks: SSH Server (4.1 TSRV)

To start the server, enter option 4.1.1 TSRVS (Start the SSH server).

You should see the following console message:

SSZ0006I Task sshd2 started
