SSH Server setup

I'm completely lost on setting up an SSH server. Without systemctl, there's almost 0 tutorials on how to start sshd, which is probably enough to get me to leave Artix. But, I'm sure there's a way to do it without systemd. HOW DO I START AN SSH SERVER?!

You need to start sshd service by your init system.

The init scripts are not provided by default and need to be isntalled (as mentioned countles times on our wiki).
So run something like:
Code: [Select]
pacman -S openssh-openrc
pacman -S openssh-runit
pacman -S openssh-s6
pacman -S openssh-66

The name of the service should be sshd.
If you are unsure you can list the content of the package after you have installed it by:
Code: [Select]
pacman -Ql openssh-openrc

And than you configure your init to start it.

Thanks. And I might as well ask how to setup RDP, because whenever I start xrdp, it only displays the login screen, and when I enter the credentials, it just freezes

I have no idea how to start rdp since I never configured it. Try to check Archwiki, or wait for someone else to answer you.
(Probably  create new topic since it is different question)
