This is quick start guide how to run ssh server on QNX. Tested on QNX 6.5 (650SP1-VM.tar). # ssh-keygen -t dsa -b 1024 -f /etc/ssh/ssh_host_dsa_key -N '' # ssh-keygen -t rsa -b 1024 -f /etc/ssh/ssh_host_rsa_key -N '' This is not security best practice but this is only a test machine. Enable direct root ssh login to the machine. # sed -i 's/#PermitRootLogin no/PermitRootLogin yes/g' /etc/ssh/sshd_config To start ssh service interactively, do: # /usr/sbin/sshd Use /usr/sbin/sshd -ddd to view debug output To run sshd on start, add the following to /etc/rc.d/rc.local : /usr/sbin/sshd & Reference: http://www.qnx.com/developers/docs/660/index.jsp?topic=%2Fcom.qnx.doc.neutrino.utilities%2Ftopic%2Fs%2Fsshd.html

Using INTEL PRO/1000 Gigabit driver in QNX 6.6 running on VMware ESXi When installing QNX 6.6 using VM-QNXSDP660-201402230339.iso on VMware ESXi (8.0 update 2) the default network apapter used is AMD Lance PCNet 32 . The PCNet 32 driver reports to only support 10Mbps, for cases where higher network bandwidth is needed Intel PRO/1000 Gigabit is a good choice. To load Intel PRO/1000 Gigabit , edit /etc/rc.d/startup_aps.sh and comment out pcnet.so driver and add dirver for e1000 , like: #io-pkt-v4-hc -d /lib/dll/devn-pcnet.so & io-pkt-v4-hc -d /lib/dll/devnp-e1000.so &
