Shellinabox

OS setup and Linux
1

Hi Folks,

New to HiveOS (albeit not linux). and fairly new at mining. First post.

I’m setting up my flash drive to experiment with and reading the instructions (RTFM - dangerous I know…) and it points me to the security thread; which towards the end talks about disabling the shellinabox daemon if not needed.

systemctl stop shellinabox
systemctl disable shellinabox

Because I’m curious to a fault, I find in the hiveroot partition (etc/default) a shellinabox config file. And right at the top it says:

# Should shellinaboxd start automatically
#SHELLINABOX_DAEMON_START=1

Given that I’ve got a monitor, keyboard, mouse already plugged in, can I set that to 0 and prevent shellinabox from even starting? Or do I still need to use systemd?

Thanks,

apprenticedudetoo
