After you have changed your configuration on your remote Unix/linux server you must restart your ssh service. The easiest way to do this is to simply restart your Unix machine. This is not always possible however.
To restart sshd without restarting your whole system, enter the following command as root
Start and configure SSH Server. To start and configure OpenSSH server for initial use, open PowerShell as an administrator, then run the following commands to start the SSHD service: Start-Service sshd # OPTIONAL but recommended: Set-Service -Name sshd -StartupType 'Automatic' # Confirm the firewall rule is configured. I use the following: cd /usr/syno/etc.defaults/rc.d/./S95sshd.sh restart & You will loose your SSH session, but at least with the '&' sign, the script will run in the background and the daemon will restart. Easier than going via a Telnet session, though you could want to have one just in case you messed you sshd config.

In this article, I will show you how to enable the OpenSSH server on Windows 10 and how to connect through ssh to a Windows 10 machine.
By default, recent versions of Windows 10 have an OpenSSH client already installed, this means that you can use a Windows 10 machine to connect through ssh to other machines, typically Linux servers, that have an ssh server enabled. How about when you want to be able to connect through ssh to another Windows computer ?
Go to the Windows Start menu and select Settings, next go to Apps → Optional features → Add a feature, on this page, search for OpenSSH Server or scroll until you find it and check the left box. Press Install.
Once the installation has finished, you need to start the OpenSSH server in order to be able to connect to this machine. Open a PowerShell window as an Administrator: go to Start → Windows Power Shell and right click on the Windows Power Shell app select More and pick Run as administrator, answer Yes when asked if you want to let this app to make changes to your device.
At this point, you can temporarily enable the OpenSSH server by writing the next command in Windows Power Shell:
You can connect to your Windows machine with:
If you need to find your IP address, run this command in PowerShell:

When you will stop or restart Windows, the OpenSSH server will be also stopped. If you need to reenable it, you can use the above command to start the service or, if you know that you want this to be on permanently, write the next two commands in a PowerShell administrator window:
The above will ensure that after a restart the sshd service will be always on.
