Hi,

We currently cannot configure the gitlab_sshd part of the omnibus config.

Sample code:

      gitlab_sshd => {
         enable => true,
         listen_address => 'git.example.com:2222',
      },

Error seen in Puppet:

Class[Gitlab]: has no parameter named 'gitlab_sshd'

The documentation states

Please note, managing the sshd service and openssh is outside the scope of this module.

Does this fall under that umbrella? Is there any other way to put these options into the config file? If we add them manually or via other puppet code they are overwritten.

This note in the documentation was introduced in 6dcb57a (6 years ago) and predate the feature you are talking about which was introduced in https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/omnibus-gitlab/-/commit/833c4489ace2a24ccdf21e53026f862877b60709 (5 months ago).

It seems fine to add support for this new configuration section if you have a need for it. Maybe at that occasion rewording the note in the readme to make it less confusing would be great.
