update-rc.d -f ssh remove
has the same effect, please remember that *IF* you upgrade you ssh
installation those links will com back with either method.
But you see, if the file "/etc/ssh/sshd_not_to_be_run" exists the init.d
script should just exit. It is why I didn't mention doing that removal.
Here is the start portion of the init.d script:
case "$1" in
start)
check_for_no_start
check_privsep_dir
echo -n "Starting OpenBSD Secure Shell server: sshd"
start-stop-daemon --start --quiet --pidfile /var/run/sshd.pid
--exec /usr/sbin/sshd -- $SSHD_OPTS
echo "."
;;
The Function check_for_no_start
check_for_no_start() {
# forget it if we're trying to start, and
/etc/ssh/sshd_not_to_be_run exists
if [ -e /etc/ssh/sshd_not_to_be_run ]; then
echo "OpenBSD Secure Shell server not in use
(/etc/ssh/sshd_not_to_be_run)"
exit 0
fi
}

Never logout of said machine completely until you can login back in
Even if you stop ssh as a daemon you won't kill you current session.
