What are the steps to install the ssh service on Ubuntu?

The steps for installing the SSH service are as follows:

  1. Open the terminal and log in as an administrator.
  2. Update the list of software packages using the following command:
sudo apt update
  1. Install the SSH server software package. Enter the following command:
sudo apt install openssh-server
  1. During the installation process, the system will prompt you to enter the user password. Press Enter after inputting the password to continue with the installation.
  2. After installation is complete, the SSH service will start automatically. You can use the following command to check the status of the SSH service:
sudo systemctl status ssh
  1. If the SSH service is not starting automatically, you can manually start it using the following command:
sudo systemctl start ssh
  1. To enable the SSH service to start automatically at system boot, you can use the following command:
sudo systemctl enable ssh
  1. After installation is complete, you can connect to the Ubuntu host using an SSH client. On another computer, open the SSH client and enter the following command to connect to the Ubuntu host:
ssh username@ip_address

“username is the username on the Ubuntu host, and ip_address is the IP address of the Ubuntu host.”

  1. When first connecting, the system may ask if you trust the host’s public key. Enter ‘yes’, and then enter your password to connect.

The above are the steps for installing SSH service. Once installed, you can use an SSH client to remotely connect to the Ubuntu host, allowing for file transfer and remote operations.
