I had to reboot to start sshd

Hello!

I click the Acknowledge messages about SSH not started and creating SSH keys. I wait about 10 minuts, but impossible to connect with SSH.

So, I decided to restart pfSense. After restarting the SSH daemon is working.

Is it normal?

I did only the mininal configuration: serial wizard and web wizard. I activated SSH using the web interface.

I haven't tried this in a few days but it worked fine for me the last time I was able to test it.

Depending on the hardware involved generating the SSH keys can take quite a long time, it is entirely possible that the keys were not complete yet.

FYI- the newer 1.2.3-RC embedded snapshots that are based on nanobsd will require a 1GB CF.
