ssh server not starting on boot

Tue Jun 11, 2013 12:27 am

It was working when I first installed raspbian, but recently, the ssh server is not starting on boot, which makes it a fairly useless headless-device.

I've tried both getting raspi-config to enable the ssh server and running the command "sudo update-rc.d ssh defaults" but when I boot, ssh server is not running and I need to start it manually.

I've looked in /var/log/auth.log and dmesg for clues, but there's nothing about ssh in either of those logs at boot.

Any clues on how to debug this? I'm not new to linux, but I am new to debian, and I've googled around without any luck to figure how to diagnose.

Thanks.
