[quote:89e269f636="caker"]Ok — SSH keys on reboot is fixed on all the host’s default debian image…

Any thoughts on including a small linode distribution version file with each distro?

Yes, I think it’s an excellent idea!

Ahh crud.

[code]rm -f /etc/rcS.d/S59sshkeysfirstboot[/code]

Will get rid of that condition.

I’ll spin through the rest of the hosts and update the default images to fix this.

Thanks.

Debian is generating ssh keys on every boot, not just on initial. (Oopsie.) {grin}

Would also strongly suggest version numbers on distribution images so we know exactly what we’ve got and what’s been added since we last ran the distro wizard.
