[lug] Anyone understand systemd?

[George Sexton]

I just upgraded a router to OpenSUSE 12.1. They replaced the SystemV 
init system with systemd.

The one thing I can't figure out is how to transport an inittab entry 
that worked in SystemV, and create something similar in systemd.

I had a command in my inittab that was:

/usr/bin/ssh -T -e none hostname

that setup a simple SSH tunnel to my production mail server. I can't 
figure out how to get it working. I've setup a systemd service entry, 
but the command keeps failing with status 1, and I don't know why.
