Консоль на ESXi Server и SSH доступ

Unsupported Console and SSH on ESXi 4
by bunchc on May 26, 2009
This will likely not generate as much fanfare as it did for the 3.5 release of ESXi, however I can confirm that it does indeed still work in vSphere ESXi 4. This is the procedure I used to get it up and running on my “Lab” box.
1.alt-f1 (Note: As pointed out below, you will not see your typing on this screen, just trust us, it is there).
2.unsupported
3.root pw
4.vi /etc/inetd.conf
5.delete the “#” from ssh
6.services.sh restart
I’ve also poked around a bit, and found that while scp works, sftp does not. Also note that some commenters had to do the following to get this to work: ps aux |grep inetd (getting the PID) and then kill -HUP PID
