    Is sshd really not part of systemd?

    Yes, it’s not a part of systemd. By running systemctl restart sshd you are just restarting the sshd systemd service. Systemd service files for things like ssh and transmission come with their respective packages.

    You can see what I mean here. The openssh-server package for Ubuntu comes with the sshd.service file.

      Yes my incorrect assumption was due to the fact that sshd came pre-installed with the OS unlike plex that came with its own service file or Jackett that I had to create the service file manually. Sshd is a program like any other that gets started by systemd. I appreciate the clarification!
