This is great.

FYI, the hosts.deny file defaults to ALL and SSH isn't installed by default so you will have to ssh into via hostX.linode.com

ssh user@hostXX.linode.com
login as root

Code:
pacman -Sy     # synchronise the package databases
pacman -S openssh     # install opensshd
echo sshd: ALL >>/etc/hosts.allow     # allow access to it


alternatively, you could replace that last line with:
Code:
echo ALL: ALL: ALLOW >>/etc/hosts.allow     # allow all hosts through (essentially disabling the check)


then you're going to want to edit /etc/rc.conf and find the daemons array close to the bottom (line 85), and edit it to include sshd, for example:
Code:
DAEMONS=(syslog-ng !hotplug !pcmcia network netfs crond sshd)


You can also add your other daemons to that array (httpd, mysqld, etc) as long as it (or you) puts an rc script in /etc/rc.d/ that launches with the standard 'scriptname start'. You can put scriptname into the daemons array to have it start/stopped on boot/shutdown.
