By default sshd server does not start in CentOS 7.
chkconfig command does not control ssh daemon any more.
Solution is to use systemctl:
[code]
> systemctl enable sshd
[/code]
It produces following awkward result:
ln -s ‘/usr/lib/systemd/system/sshd.service’ ‘/etc/systemd/system/multi-user.target.wants/sshd.service’
To check if SSH server is staring on boot (and if it is running):
[code]
> systemctl status sshd
sshd.service – OpenSSH server daemon
Loaded: loaded (/usr/lib/systemd/system/sshd.service; enabled)
Active: active (running) since Mon 2014-11-03 18:43:56 GMT; 20min ago
[/code]
Enabled – means it will start at boot time automatically.
