-protocol is then used to determine where to connect to from the
-remote machine.  The argument must be a port number.
-Currently the SOCKS4 protocol is supported, and
-.Nm

-Multiple forwardings may be specified, and
-additional forwardings can be given on the command line.  Only
-the superuser can forward privileged ports.
-.It Cm EscapeChar

-prevents other remote hosts from connecting to forwarded ports.
-.Cm GatewayPorts
-can be used to specify that
-.Nm
-should bind local port forwardings to the wildcard address,
-thus allowing remote hosts to connect to forwarded ports.
-The argument must be

-for protocol version 2.
-Additionally, any identities represented by the authentication agent
-will be used for authentication.
-The file name may use the tilde
-syntax to refer to a user's home directory.
-It is possible to have
-multiple identity files specified in configuration files; all these
-identities will be tried in sequence.
-.It Cm KeepAlive
-Specifies whether the system should send TCP keepalive messages to the
-other side.
-If they are sent, death of the connection or crash of one
-of the machines will be properly noticed.
-However, this means that
-connections will die if the route is down temporarily, and some people
-find it annoying.
-.Pp
-The default is
-.Dq yes
-(to send keepalives), and the client will notice
-if the network goes down or the remote host dies.
-This is important in scripts, and many users want it too.
-.Pp
-To disable keepalives, the value should be set to
-.Dq no .

-The argument to this keyword must be
-.Dq yes
-or
-.Dq no .
-.It Cm KerberosTgtPassing

-.Dq yes
-or
-.Dq no .
-.It Cm LocalForward
-Specifies that a TCP/IP port on the local machine be forwarded over
-the secure channel to the specified host and port from the remote machine.

-in order of preference.
-The MAC algorithm is used in protocol version 2
-for data integrity protection.
-Multiple algorithms must be comma-separated.
-The default is

-.It Cm NoHostAuthenticationForLocalhost
-This option can be used if the home directory is shared across machines.
-In this case localhost will refer to a different machine on each of
-the machines and the user will get many warnings about changed host keys.
-However, this option disables host authentication for localhost.
-The argument to this keyword must be
-.Dq yes
-or
-.Dq no .
-The default is to check the host key for localhost.
-.It Cm NumberOfPasswordPrompts
-Specifies the number of password prompts before giving up.

-.It Cm Port
-Specifies the port number to connect on the remote host.
-Default is 22.
-.It Cm PreferredAuthentications

-over another method (e.g.
-.Cm password )
-The default for this option is:
-.Dq hostbased,publickey,keyboard-interactive,password .

-.Nm
-should support in order of preference.
-The possible values are
-.Dq 1
-and
-.Dq 2 .
-Multiple versions must be comma-separated.
-The default is
-.Dq 2,1 .
-This means that
-.Nm
-tries version 2 and falls back to version 1
-if version 2 is not available.
-.It Cm ProxyCommand
-Specifies the command to use to connect to the server.
-The command
-string extends to the end of the line, and is executed with
-.Pa /bin/sh .
-In the command string,
-.Ql %h
-will be substituted by the host name to
-connect and
-.Ql %p
-by the port.
-The command can be basically anything,
-and should read from its standard input and write to its standard output.
-It should eventually connect an
-.Xr sshd 8
-server running on some machine, or execute
-.Ic sshd -i
-somewhere.
-Host key management will be done using the
-HostName of the host being connected (defaulting to the name typed by
-the user).
-Note that
-.Cm CheckHostIP
-is not available for connects with a proxy command.
-.Pp
-.It Cm PubkeyAuthentication
-Specifies whether to try public key authentication.
-The argument to this keyword must be
-.Dq yes
-or
-.Dq no .
-The default is
-.Dq yes .

-The first argument must be a port number, and the second must be
-.Ar host:port .
-IPv6 addresses can be specified with an alternative syntax:
-.Ar host/port .
-Multiple forwardings may be specified, and additional
-forwardings can be given on the command line.

-Note that this
-declaration only affects the client side and has no effect whatsoever
-on security.
-Disabling rhosts authentication may reduce
-authentication time on slow connections when rhosts authentication is
-not used.
-Most servers do not permit RhostsAuthentication because it
-is not secure (see
-.Cm RhostsRSAAuthentication ) .
-The argument to this keyword must be
-.Dq yes
-or
-.Dq no .
-The default is
-.Dq yes .
-This option applies to protocol version 1 only.

-The default is
-.Dq yes .
-.It Cm SmartcardDevice
-Specifies which smartcard device to use. The argument to this keyword is
-the device
-.Nm
-should use to communicate with a smartcard used for storing the user's
-private RSA key. By default, no device is specified and smartcard support
-is not activated.
-.It Cm StrictHostKeyChecking
-If this flag is set to
-.Dq yes ,
-.Nm
-will never automatically add host keys to the
-.Pa $HOME/.ssh/known_hosts
-file, and refuses to connect to hosts whose host key has changed.
-This provides maximum protection against trojan horse attacks,
-however, can be annoying when the
-.Pa /etc/ssh/ssh_known_hosts
-file is poorly maintained, or connections to new hosts are
-frequently made.
-This option forces the user to manually
-add all new hosts.
-If this flag is set to
-.Dq no ,
-.Nm
-will automatically add new host keys to the
-user known hosts files.
-If this flag is set to
-.Dq ask ,
-new host keys
-will be added to the user known host files only after the user
-has confirmed that is what they really want to do, and
-.Nm
-will refuse to connect to hosts whose host key has changed.
-The host keys of
-known hosts will be verified automatically in all cases.
-The argument must be
-.Dq yes ,
-.Dq no

-The default is

-.It Cm UsePrivilegedPort
-Specifies whether to use a privileged port for outgoing connections.

-.It Cm UserKnownHostsFile
-Specifies a file to use for the user
