Remote login after power outage - Ubuntu 11.10

[lobius]

Power goes out, server goes down, power comes back.

Because of disability, I depend entirely on putty/SSH/W7 speech recognition for managing my Ubuntu box.

Consequently, even though the server is less than 2 feet away, I can't make the initial login.

Apparently, the SSH server doesn't come up until after the first login.

How do I make Ubuntu skip the first login?

Conceptually, I can have it autologin as a lower level user or a guest just to get my sites back up.

I just need to know how to go about doing this. Maybe there's another approach?

Thanks.

Disregard. I figured it out.
