All,

 

I have a system and it monitors my UPS via NUT. What Id like to do is have this other system tell unRAID to shut down, or as a minimum stop the array before power failure. My UPS is not an APC so I cant use APCUPSD on both systems and have one monitor the parent etc (unless you can have APCUPSD monitor the remote NUT software?). So one of the things I can do is create a shutdown script on the UPS enabled system to SSH to unRaid and perform the relevant commands. To allow me to do this Id like to setup SSH Keys. Where is the .ssh directory on unRAID and is it persistent after reboot so the keys are not lost? Has anyone done this?

 

Thanks

 

Jim

ssh is not installed by default.  There is a package in unMenu that can install it for you.  Once it is installed you can go about setting it up as you like

Hi

 

I have used unmenu to add ssh and it works fin . I dont know where this ssh package expects .ssh directory to be , and more importantly if that locations stays available after reboot.

look on your flash drive in the custom/etc folder.  There should be an ssh folder in there and everything in that folder is copied to the correct spot on a reboot.
