How to start Virtualmin's SSH Server automatically

Hi, I have been trying to find how to start Virtualmin's SSH Server automatically, rather than going into a browser > Virtualmin > System Information > SSH Server > Start SSH Server (the green arrow).

I remember upon Virtualmin install there was an option to start SSH Server automatically, however at the time I chose not to.

Howdy,

Hmm, the SSH server should always start automatically.

During the installation, it does ask whether you want to run the SpamAssassin and ClamAV daemons -- it doesn't actually ask about SSH though, it's assumed folks would always want that running.

If it's not starting automatically for you at boot time, what you may want to do is go into Webmin -> System -> Bootup and Shutdown, and make sure the service is set to startup on bootup.
