Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: ubuntu-docs
While translating the "Remote Administration" section in the Ubuntu
server guide for Intrepid, I noticed there is a wrong filename reported
for configuring sshd. In section 5.1.3 "Configuration" it reads:
"There are many directives in the sshd configuration file controlling
such things as communications settings and authentication modes. The
following are examples of configuration directives that can be changed
by editing the /etc/ssh/ssh_config file."
The filename in the end should read "/etc/ssh/sshd_config" -- the d is
missing in sshd_config. This is quite serious as the wrongly named file
actually exists (at least if ssh-client is installed which should be the
case in a server-installation). Thus, the documentation can actually
provoke serious misconfigurations.
