how too , turn off ssh on all clients

I'm thinking a shell script. I don't think this can be set through the interface in mass.
 
Sure, we can write it as a plugin.

But we don't have a need for it.

So the question becomes, if we write it is anyone going to buy it?

If only one or two people need it then it's not worth our writing it, because we pay our programmers, but perhaps someone else would write it.

Better, create a plugin that will keep track of all users and let you move them back and forth.

That's what I was thinking of in my previous post concerning a plugin.

'til then, just be sure you keep a copy of the config file before changes.

I'm not sure why you can't manage it by not allowing ssh logins in your packages.

Why don't you just edit your passwd/shadow file :) With a simple script.
 
Turn off and create separate user

I do it similar to what Jeff said, I turned SSH off in all packages, and created a separate user after I logged in as root, and use that separate user to ssh in and su to root. Seemed the thing to do instead of risking using a DA created user since I didn't at the time have DA under SSL. Even after, I wouldn't recommend it either way, seems the logical and safest way. I would assume based on logic most people do it that way, Jeff. Together with that and the ability to turn if off already in DA in the packages, I doubt if you would have many buyers for a plugin.
