Michael,

> How do I make sshd start upon booting an alpha 600au running DU4.0D?

In the contrib directory on the server you d/led ssh from, there should
be a file called: ssh-sysv-startup-script

----- snip ----- snip ----- snip ----- snip ----- snip -----
#!/bin/sh
#
# Start/Stop the secure shell daemon.
#
# Written by Michael Haardt, 1996.

PATH=/bin:/usr/bin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/local/sbin
SSHD=/usr/local/sbin/sshd
PID=/var/run/sshd.pid

case $1 in
  #{{{script}}}#{{{ start
  'start')
    start=false
    if [ ! -s $PID ]
    then
      start=true
    else
      kill -0 `cat $PID` >/dev/null 2>&1 || start=true
    fi
    if [ $start = true -a -x $SSHD ]
    then
      $SSHD
      echo 'Secure shell daemon started.'
    else
      echo 'Secure shell daemon not started.'
    fi
  ;;
  #}}}
  #{{{ stop
  'stop')
    if [ -s $PID ]
    then
      if kill `cat $PID` >/dev/null 2>&1
      then
        echo 'Secure shell daemon terminated.'
      fi
    fi
  ;;
  #}}}
  #{{{ *
  *)
    echo 'Usage: /etc/init.d/sshd start|stop'
    ;;
  #}}}
esac
# EOF sshd
----- snip ----- snip ----- snip ----- snip ----- snip -----

1. Copy this file to /sbin/init.d/sshd
2. Make the file safe:
   
   chmod og-w /sbin/init.d/sshd

3. Make the file executable:

   chmod a+x /sbin/init.d/sshd

4. Make a link into /sbin/rc3.d to automatically start sshd:
   
   ln -s /sbin/init.d/sshd /sbin/rc3.d/S70sshd

5. Make a link into /sbin/rc0.d and /sbin/rc2.d to shutdown
   ssh when the system is changing run levels:
   
   ln -s /sbin/init.d/sshd /sbin/rc0.d/K24sshd
   ln -s /sbin/init.d/sshd /sbin/rc2.d/K24sshd
