Could you show a listing of /etc/rcS.d ? Seeing /etc/rc2.d might also be useful. > I presume that having Require-Start: $network means that the network > must have been started. Yes. Currently, sshd depends on $remotefs which itself depends on (among others) mountnfs, and mountnfs has a "Should-Start:" on $network, which means that it wants to start after ifupdown and networking. I assume that netbase and ifupdown are installed which provide these scripts, so sshd should be started after $network already. > Is this something that should be raised with insserv or should it be done > package by package? I suspect problems in the dependencies that should be resolved package by package, but first I'd like to see your /etc/rcS.d directory.
