Hi

This morning I started my GuixSD VM as usual.

Openssh server was not running even though it was enabled and should 
have been respawned. Hmm.

Lucky for me SSH is not the only way into this system...

 From the host I got:

$ ssh  sdb@localhost -p10022
ssh_exchange_identification: read: Connection reset by peer

On the guest:

$ grep -3 "ssh-daemon could not /var/log/messages

$ cat sshd-stopped
Status of ssh-daemon:
   It is stopped.
   It is enabled.
   Provides (ssh-daemon).
   Requires (syslogd).
   Conflicts with ().
   Will be respawned.               <-- not true!

Starting it yielded:

$ cat sshd-start
Service ssh-daemon has been started.

How do I increase the verbosity of shepherd? I did not find anything 
about that in the shepherd manual 
<https://www.gnu.org/software/shepherd/manual/shepherd.html#Invoking-shepherd>.

Is there a way to debug further?

This seems to be the same issue as described in
<https://issues.guix.info/issue/30993> (I’ve now merged both).

It’s a serious problem…

Thanks for reporting it,
Ludo’.
