@efx:matrix.orgEli FlanaganI read through the GitHub links and found this open PR that tried to add an error message: https://github.com/NixOS/nix/pull/6628. Prior art we might consider rallying to address. I know not C++ 19:29:38
@efx:matrix.orgEli FlanaganAlso, Determinate Systems had documentation in their readme that they've since removed. Their nix-installer appears to fix the issue (https://github.com/DeterminateSystems/nix-installer/pull/714)19:35:47

unsure. i think the rc file isn't read at all, yeah? then i think some sshd config drop in ought to be added to the installer unless you have better ideas
I wonder if we couldn't do something in nixpkgs that would be a ready-to-go sshd that's specific to ssh-ng 🤔

As in, it doesn't depend on outside state, and is configured exclusively for use with being used as a Nix builder.

the actual more reasonable thing here is a ssh service/subsystem/whateveritis like sftp

Now that's a flavor I haven't heard in forever. Does anyone else do that?!

Do you see a way of doing a drop-in style config? sshd_config isn't making me see any. I agree after reading the docs on subsystem that a nix subsystem would be 🔥
