1.44 aaron 85: .Sh DESCRIPTION
1.2 deraadt 86: .Nm
1.96 deraadt 87: (SSH client) is a program for logging into a remote machine and for
1.40 aaron 88: executing commands on a remote machine.
1.176 jmc 89: It is intended to replace rlogin and rsh,
90: and provide secure encrypted communications between
1.40 aaron 91: two untrusted hosts over an insecure network.
1.176 jmc 92: X11 connections and arbitrary TCP/IP ports
93: can also be forwarded over the secure channel.
1.2 deraadt 94: .Pp
95: .Nm
1.44 aaron 96: connects and logs into the specified
1.176 jmc 97: .Ar hostname
98: (with optional
99: .Ar user
100: name).
1.1 deraadt 101: The user must prove
1.49 markus 102: his/her identity to the remote machine using one of several methods
1.221 jmc 103: depending on the protocol version used (see below).
1.49 markus 104: .Pp
1.176 jmc 105: If
106: .Ar command
107: is specified,
1.219 jmc 108: it is executed on the remote host instead of a login shell.
1.2 deraadt 109: .Pp
1.218 jmc 110: The options are as follows:
111: .Bl -tag -width Ds
112: .It Fl 1
113: Forces
1.2 deraadt 114: .Nm
1.218 jmc 115: to try protocol version 1 only.
116: .It Fl 2
117: Forces
1.2 deraadt 118: .Nm
1.218 jmc 119: to try protocol version 2 only.
120: .It Fl 4
121: Forces
1.2 deraadt 122: .Nm
1.218 jmc 123: to use IPv4 addresses only.
124: .It Fl 6
125: Forces
1.2 deraadt 126: .Nm
1.218 jmc 127: to use IPv6 addresses only.
128: .It Fl A
129: Enables forwarding of the authentication agent connection.
130: This can also be specified on a per-host basis in a configuration file.
1.2 deraadt 131: .Pp
1.218 jmc 132: Agent forwarding should be enabled with caution.
133: Users with the ability to bypass file permissions on the remote host
134: (for the agent's Unix-domain socket)
135: can access the local agent through the forwarded connection.
136: An attacker cannot obtain key material from the agent,
137: however they can perform operations on the keys that enable them to
138: authenticate using the identities loaded into the agent.
139: .It Fl a
140: Disables forwarding of the authentication agent connection.
141: .It Fl b Ar bind_address
142: Use
143: .Ar bind_address
144: on the local machine as the source address
145: of the connection.
146: Only useful on systems with more than one address.
147: .It Fl C
148: Requests compression of all data (including stdin, stdout, stderr, and
149: data for forwarded X11 and TCP/IP connections).
150: The compression algorithm is the same used by
151: .Xr gzip 1 ,
152: and the
153: .Dq level
154: can be controlled by the
155: .Cm CompressionLevel
156: option for protocol version 1.
157: Compression is desirable on modem lines and other
158: slow connections, but will only slow down things on fast networks.
159: The default value can be set on a host-by-host basis in the
160: configuration files; see the
161: .Cm Compression
162: option.
163: .It Fl c Ar cipher_spec
164: Selects the cipher specification for encrypting the session.
1.2 deraadt 165: .Pp
1.218 jmc 166: Protocol version 1 allows specification of a single cipher.
167: The supported values are
168: .Dq 3des ,
1.220 jmc 169: .Dq blowfish ,
1.218 jmc 170: and
171: .Dq des .
172: .Ar 3des
173: (triple-des) is an encrypt-decrypt-encrypt triple with three different keys.
174: It is believed to be secure.
175: .Ar blowfish
176: is a fast block cipher; it appears very secure and is much faster than
177: .Ar 3des .
178: .Ar des
179: is only supported in the
1.2 deraadt 180: .Nm
1.218 jmc 181: client for interoperability with legacy protocol 1 implementations
182: that do not support the
183: .Ar 3des
184: cipher.
185: Its use is strongly discouraged due to cryptographic weaknesses.
186: The default is
187: .Dq 3des .
1.49 markus 188: .Pp
1.218 jmc 189: For protocol version 2
190: .Ar cipher_spec
191: is a comma-separated list of ciphers
192: listed in order of preference.
193: The supported ciphers are
194: .Dq 3des-cbc ,
195: .Dq aes128-cbc ,
196: .Dq aes192-cbc ,
197: .Dq aes256-cbc ,
198: .Dq aes128-ctr ,
199: .Dq aes192-ctr ,
200: .Dq aes256-ctr ,
201: .Dq arcfour128 ,
202: .Dq arcfour256 ,
203: .Dq arcfour ,
204: .Dq blowfish-cbc ,
205: and
206: .Dq cast128-cbc .
1.220 jmc 207: The default is:
208: .Bd -literal -offset indent
209: aes128-cbc,3des-cbc,blowfish-cbc,cast128-cbc,arcfour128,
210: arcfour256,arcfour,aes192-cbc,aes256-cbc,aes128-ctr,

1.218 jmc 212: .Ed
213: .It Fl D Xo
214: .Sm off
215: .Oo Ar bind_address : Oc
216: .Ar port
217: .Sm on
218: .Xc
219: Specifies a local
220: .Dq dynamic
221: application-level port forwarding.
222: This works by allocating a socket to listen to
223: .Ar port
224: on the local side, optionally bound to the specified
225: .Ar bind_address .
226: Whenever a connection is made to this port, the
227: connection is forwarded over the secure channel, and the application
228: protocol is then used to determine where to connect to from the
229: remote machine.
230: Currently the SOCKS4 and SOCKS5 protocols are supported, and
1.107 markus 231: .Nm
1.218 jmc 232: will act as a SOCKS server.
233: Only root can forward privileged ports.
234: Dynamic port forwardings can also be specified in the configuration file.
1.49 markus 235: .Pp
1.218 jmc 236: IPv6 addresses can be specified with an alternative syntax:
237: .Sm off
238: .Xo
239: .Op Ar bind_address No /
240: .Ar port
241: .Xc
242: .Sm on
243: or by enclosing the address in square brackets.
244: Only the superuser can forward privileged ports.
245: By default, the local port is bound in accordance with the
246: .Cm GatewayPorts
247: setting.
248: However, an explicit
249: .Ar bind_address
250: may be used to bind the connection to a specific address.
251: The
252: .Ar bind_address
253: of
254: .Dq localhost
255: indicates that the listening port be bound for local use only, while an
256: empty address or
257: .Sq *
258: indicates that the port should be available from all interfaces.
259: .It Fl e Ar ch | ^ch | none
260: Sets the escape character for sessions with a pty (default:
261: .Ql ~ ) .
262: The escape character is only recognized at the beginning of a line.
263: The escape character followed by a dot
264: .Pq Ql \&.
265: closes the connection;
266: followed by control-Z suspends the connection;
267: and followed by itself sends the escape character once.
268: Setting the character to
1.2 deraadt 269: .Dq none
1.218 jmc 270: disables any escapes and makes the session fully transparent.
271: .It Fl F Ar configfile
272: Specifies an alternative per-user configuration file.
273: If a configuration file is given on the command line,
274: the system-wide configuration file
275: .Pq Pa /etc/ssh/ssh_config
276: will be ignored.
277: The default for the per-user configuration file is
278: .Pa ~/.ssh/config .
279: .It Fl f
280: Requests
281: .Nm
282: to go to background just before command execution.
283: This is useful if
1.176 jmc 284: .Nm
1.218 jmc 285: is going to ask for passwords or passphrases, but the user
286: wants it in the background.
287: This implies
288: .Fl n .
289: The recommended way to start X11 programs at a remote site is with
290: something like
291: .Ic ssh -f host xterm .
292: .It Fl g
293: Allows remote hosts to connect to local forwarded ports.
294: .It Fl I Ar smartcard_device
295: Specifies which smartcard device to use.
296: The argument is the device
1.176 jmc 297: .Nm
1.218 jmc 298: should use to communicate with a smartcard used for storing the user's
299: private RSA key.
300: .It Fl i Ar identity_file
301: Selects a file from which the identity (private key) for
302: RSA or DSA authentication is read.
303: The default is
304: .Pa ~/.ssh/identity
305: for protocol version 1, and
306: .Pa ~/.ssh/id_rsa
1.149 jakob 307: and
1.218 jmc 308: .Pa ~/.ssh/id_dsa
309: for protocol version 2.
310: Identity files may also be specified on
311: a per-host basis in the configuration file.
312: It is possible to have multiple
313: .Fl i
314: options (and multiple identities specified in
315: configuration files).
316: .It Fl k
317: Disables forwarding (delegation) of GSSAPI credentials to the server.
318: .It Fl L Xo
319: .Sm off
320: .Oo Ar bind_address : Oc
321: .Ar port : host : hostport
322: .Sm on
323: .Xc
324: Specifies that the given port on the local (client) host is to be
325: forwarded to the given host and port on the remote side.
326: This works by allocating a socket to listen to
327: .Ar port
328: on the local side, optionally bound to the specified
329: .Ar bind_address .
330: Whenever a connection is made to this port, the
331: connection is forwarded over the secure channel, and a connection is
332: made to
333: .Ar host
334: port
335: .Ar hostport
336: from the remote machine.
337: Port forwardings can also be specified in the configuration file.
338: IPv6 addresses can be specified with an alternative syntax:
339: .Sm off
340: .Xo
341: .Op Ar bind_address No /
342: .Ar port No / Ar host No /
343: .Ar hostport
344: .Xc
345: .Sm on
346: or by enclosing the address in square brackets.
347: Only the superuser can forward privileged ports.
348: By default, the local port is bound in accordance with the
349: .Cm GatewayPorts
350: setting.
351: However, an explicit
352: .Ar bind_address
353: may be used to bind the connection to a specific address.
1.2 deraadt 354: The
1.218 jmc 355: .Ar bind_address
356: of
357: .Dq localhost
358: indicates that the listening port be bound for local use only, while an
359: empty address or
360: .Sq *
361: indicates that the port should be available from all interfaces.
362: .It Fl l Ar login_name
363: Specifies the user to log in as on the remote machine.
364: This also may be specified on a per-host basis in the configuration file.
365: .It Fl M
366: Places the
367: .Nm
368: client into
369: .Dq master
370: mode for connection sharing.
371: Refer to the description of
372: .Cm ControlMaster
373: in
374: .Xr ssh_config 5
375: for details.
376: .It Fl m Ar mac_spec
377: Additionally, for protocol version 2 a comma-separated list of MAC
378: (message authentication code) algorithms can
379: be specified in order of preference.
380: See the
381: .Cm MACs
382: keyword for more information.
383: .It Fl N
384: Do not execute a remote command.
385: This is useful for just forwarding ports
386: (protocol version 2 only).
387: .It Fl n
388: Redirects stdin from
389: .Pa /dev/null
390: (actually, prevents reading from stdin).
391: This must be used when
1.2 deraadt 392: .Nm
1.218 jmc 393: is run in the background.
394: A common trick is to use this to run X11 programs on a remote machine.
395: For example,
396: .Ic ssh -n shadows.cs.hut.fi emacs &
397: will start an emacs on shadows.cs.hut.fi, and the X11
398: connection will be automatically forwarded over an encrypted channel.
399: The
1.2 deraadt 400: .Nm
1.218 jmc 401: program will be put in the background.
402: (This does not work if
1.2 deraadt 403: .Nm
1.218 jmc 404: needs to ask for a password or passphrase; see also the
405: .Fl f
406: option.)
407: .It Fl O Ar ctl_cmd
408: Control an active connection multiplexing master process.
409: When the
410: .Fl O
411: option is specified, the
412: .Ar ctl_cmd
413: argument is interpreted and passed to the master process.
414: Valid commands are:
415: .Dq check
416: (check that the master process is running) and
417: .Dq exit
418: (request the master to exit).
419: .It Fl o Ar option
420: Can be used to give options in the format used in the configuration file.
421: This is useful for specifying options for which there is no separate
422: command-line flag.
423: For full details of the options listed below, and their possible values, see

505: .Ar port
506: on the remote side, and whenever a connection is made to this port, the

1.222 ! jmc 616: .Sh AUTHENTICATION
! 617: The OpenSSH SSH client supports OpenSSH protocols 1 and 2.
! 618: Protocol 2 is the default, with
! 619: .Nm
! 620: falling back to protocol 1 if it detects protocol 2 is unsupported.
! 621: These settings may be altered using the
! 622: .Cm Protocol
! 623: option in
! 624: .Xr ssh_config 5 ,
! 625: or enforced using the
! 626: .Fl 1
! 627: and
! 628: .Fl 2
! 629: options (see above).
! 630: Both protocols support similar authentication methods,
! 631: but protocol 2 is preferred since
! 632: it provides additional mechanisms for confidentiality
! 633: (the traffic is encrypted using AES, 3DES, Blowfish, CAST128, or Arcfour)
! 634: and integrity (hmac-md5, hmac-sha1, hmac-ripemd160).
! 635: Protocol 1 lacks a strong mechanism for ensuring the
! 636: integrity of the connection.
! 637: .Pp
! 638: The methods available for authentication are:
! 639: host-based authentication,
! 640: public key authentication,
! 641: challenge-response authentication,
! 642: and password authentication.
! 643: Authentication methods are tried in the order specified above,
! 644: though protocol 2 has a configuration option to change the default order:
! 645: .Cm PreferredAuthentications .
! 646: .Pp
! 647: Host-based authentication works as follows:
1.218 jmc 648: If the machine the user logs in from is listed in
649: .Pa /etc/hosts.equiv
650: or
651: .Pa /etc/shosts.equiv
652: on the remote machine, and the user names are
653: the same on both sides, or if the files
654: .Pa ~/.rhosts
655: or
656: .Pa ~/.shosts
657: exist in the user's home directory on the
658: remote machine and contain a line containing the name of the client
659: machine and the name of the user on that machine, the user is
1.222 ! jmc 660: considered for login.
! 661: Additionally, the server
! 662: .Em must
! 663: be able to verify the client's
! 664: host key (see the description of
1.218 jmc 665: .Pa /etc/ssh/ssh_known_hosts
1.189 dtucker 666: and
1.222 ! jmc 667: .Pa ~/.ssh/known_hosts ,
! 668: below)
! 669: for login to be permitted.
1.218 jmc 670: This authentication method closes security holes due to IP
1.222 ! jmc 671: spoofing, DNS spoofing, and routing spoofing.
1.218 jmc 672: [Note to the administrator:
673: .Pa /etc/hosts.equiv ,
674: .Pa ~/.rhosts ,
675: and the rlogin/rsh protocol in general, are inherently insecure and should be
676: disabled if security is desired.]
1.189 dtucker 677: .Pp
1.222 ! jmc 678: Public key authentication works as follows:
! 679: The scheme is based on public-key cryptography,
! 680: using cryptosystems
! 681: where encryption and decryption are done using separate keys,
! 682: and it is unfeasible to derive the decryption key from the encryption key.
1.218 jmc 683: The idea is that each user creates a public/private
684: key pair for authentication purposes.
685: The server knows the public key, and only the user knows the private key.
1.222 ! jmc 686: .Nm
! 687: implements public key authentication protocol automatically,
! 688: using either the RSA or DSA algorithms.
! 689: Protocol 1 is restricted to using only RSA keys,
! 690: but protocol 2 may use either.
! 691: The
! 692: .Sx HISTORY
! 693: section of
! 694: .Xr ssl 8
! 695: contains a brief discussion of the two algorithms.
1.210 djm 696: .Pp
1.218 jmc 697: The file
698: .Pa ~/.ssh/authorized_keys
699: lists the public keys that are permitted for logging in.
700: When the user logs in, the
1.2 deraadt 701: .Nm
1.218 jmc 702: program tells the server which key pair it would like to use for
703: authentication.
1.222 ! jmc 704: The client proves that it has access to the private key
! 705: and the server checks that the corresponding public key
! 706: is authorized to accept the account.
1.218 jmc 707: .Pp
1.222 ! jmc 708: The user creates his/her key pair by running
1.218 jmc 709: .Xr ssh-keygen 1 .
710: This stores the private key in
1.207 djm 711: .Pa ~/.ssh/identity
1.222 ! jmc 712: (protocol 1),
! 713: .Pa ~/.ssh/id_dsa
! 714: (protocol 2 DSA),
! 715: or
! 716: .Pa ~/.ssh/id_rsa
! 717: (protocol 2 RSA)
1.218 jmc 718: and stores the public key in
719: .Pa ~/.ssh/identity.pub
1.222 ! jmc 720: (protocol 1),
! 721: .Pa ~/.ssh/id_dsa.pub
! 722: (protocol 2 DSA),
! 723: or
! 724: .Pa ~/.ssh/id_rsa.pub
! 725: (protocol 2 RSA)
1.218 jmc 726: in the user's home directory.
1.222 ! jmc 727: The user should then copy the public key
1.218 jmc 728: to
729: .Pa ~/.ssh/authorized_keys
1.222 ! jmc 730: in his/her home directory on the remote machine.
! 731: The
1.218 jmc 732: .Pa authorized_keys
733: file corresponds to the conventional
734: .Pa ~/.rhosts
735: file, and has one key
1.222 ! jmc 736: per line, though the lines can be very long.
1.218 jmc 737: After this, the user can log in without giving the password.
738: .Pp
1.222 ! jmc 739: The most convenient way to use public key authentication may be with an
1.218 jmc 740: authentication agent.
741: See
742: .Xr ssh-agent 1
743: for more information.
744: .Pp
1.222 ! jmc 745: Challenge-response authentication works as follows:
! 746: The server sends an arbitrary
! 747: .Qq challenge
! 748: text, and prompts for a response.
! 749: Protocol 2 allows multiple challenges and responses;
! 750: protocol 1 is restricted to just one challenge/response.
! 751: Examples of challenge-response authentication include
! 752: BSD Authentication (see
! 753: .Xr login.conf 5 )
! 754: and PAM (some non-OpenBSD systems).
! 755: .Pp
! 756: Finally, if other authentication methods fail,
1.218 jmc 757: .Nm
758: prompts the user for a password.
759: The password is sent to the remote
760: host for checking; however, since all communications are encrypted,
761: the password cannot be seen by someone listening on the network.
762: .Ss Login session and remote execution
763: When the user's identity has been accepted by the server, the server
764: either executes the given command, or logs into the machine and gives
765: the user a normal shell on the remote machine.
766: All communication with
767: the remote command or shell will be automatically encrypted.
768: .Pp
769: If a pseudo-terminal has been allocated (normal login session), the
770: user may use the escape characters noted below.
771: .Pp
772: If no pseudo-tty has been allocated,
773: the session is transparent and can be used to reliably transfer binary data.
774: On most systems, setting the escape character to
775: .Dq none
776: will also make the session transparent even if a tty is used.
777: .Pp
778: The session terminates when the command or shell on the remote
779: machine exits and all X11 and TCP/IP connections have been closed.
780: The exit status of the remote program is returned as the exit status of
781: .Nm ssh .
782: .Pp
1.2 deraadt 783: .Nm
1.218 jmc 784: may additionally obtain configuration data from
785: a per-user configuration file and a system-wide configuration file.
786: The file format and configuration options are described in
787: .Xr ssh_config 5 .
788: .Ss Escape Characters
789: When a pseudo-terminal has been requested,
1.2 deraadt 790: .Nm
1.218 jmc 791: supports a number of functions through the use of an escape character.
792: .Pp
793: A single tilde character can be sent as
794: .Ic ~~
795: or by following the tilde by a character other than those described below.
796: The escape character must always follow a newline to be interpreted as
797: special.
798: The escape character can be changed in configuration files using the
799: .Cm EscapeChar
800: configuration directive or on the command line by the
801: .Fl e
802: option.
803: .Pp
804: The supported escapes (assuming the default
805: .Ql ~ )
806: are:
807: .Bl -tag -width Ds
808: .It Cm ~.
809: Disconnect.
810: .It Cm ~^Z

834: .Ic !\& Ns Ar command
835: allows the user to execute a local command if the

1.176 jmc 862: from the local machine.
1.218 jmc 863: The user should not manually set
864: .Ev DISPLAY .
865: Forwarding of X11 connections can be

867: .Pp
868: The
869: .Ev DISPLAY
870: value set by
871: .Nm
872: will point to the server machine, but with a display number greater than zero.
873: This is normal, and happens because
874: .Nm
875: creates a

877: X server on the server machine for forwarding the
878: connections over the encrypted channel.
1.200 djm 879: .Pp
1.218 jmc 880: .Nm
881: will also automatically set up Xauthority data on the server machine.
882: For this purpose, it will generate a random authorization cookie,
883: store it in Xauthority on the server, and verify that any forwarded
884: connections carry this cookie and replace it by the real cookie when
885: the connection is opened.
886: The real authentication cookie is never

1.191 djm 895: and
1.218 jmc 896: .Fl a
897: options described later) and
898: the user is using an authentication agent, the connection to the agent
899: is automatically forwarded to the remote side.
900: .Pp
901: Forwarding of arbitrary TCP/IP connections over the secure channel can
902: be specified either on the command line or in a configuration file.
903: One possible application of TCP/IP forwarding is a secure connection to an

905: .Ss Server authentication
1.73 markus 906: .Nm
1.218 jmc 907: automatically maintains and checks a database containing

912: Additionally, the file
913: .Pa /etc/ssh/ssh_known_hosts
914: is automatically checked for known hosts.
915: Any new hosts are automatically added to the user's file.
916: If a host's identification ever changes,
1.2 deraadt 917: .Nm
1.218 jmc 918: warns about this and disables password authentication to prevent a
919: trojan horse from getting the user's password.
920: Another purpose of this mechanism is to prevent man-in-the-middle attacks
921: which could otherwise be used to circumvent the encryption.
922: The
923: .Cm StrictHostKeyChecking
924: option can be used to prevent logins to machines whose

1.207 djm 1050: .It Pa ~/.ssh/identity.pub, ~/.ssh/id_dsa.pub, ~/.ssh/id_rsa.pub
1.1 deraadt 1051: Contains the public key for authentication (public part of the
1.40 aaron 1052: identity file in human-readable form).
1.48 markus 1053: The contents of the
1.207 djm 1054: .Pa ~/.ssh/identity.pub
1.176 jmc 1055: file should be added to the file
1.207 djm 1056: .Pa ~/.ssh/authorized_keys
1.2 deraadt 1057: on all machines
1.137 deraadt 1058: where the user wishes to log in using protocol version 1 RSA authentication.
1.48 markus 1059: The contents of the
1.207 djm 1060: .Pa ~/.ssh/id_dsa.pub
1.102 itojun 1061: and
1.207 djm 1062: .Pa ~/.ssh/id_rsa.pub
1.48 markus 1063: file should be added to
1.207 djm 1064: .Pa ~/.ssh/authorized_keys
1.48 markus 1065: on all machines
1.137 deraadt 1066: where the user wishes to log in using protocol version 2 DSA/RSA authentication.
1.48 markus 1067: These files are not
1.40 aaron 1068: sensitive and can (but need not) be readable by anyone.
1.48 markus 1069: These files are
1.84 markus 1070: never used automatically and are not necessary; they are only provided for
1.1 deraadt 1071: the convenience of the user.
1.207 djm 1072: .It Pa ~/.ssh/config
1.40 aaron 1073: This is the per-user configuration file.
1.158 stevesk 1074: The file format and configuration options are described in
1075: .Xr ssh_config 5 .
1.183 djm 1076: Because of the potential for abuse, this file must have strict permissions:
1077: read/write for the user, and not accessible by others.
1.207 djm 1078: .It Pa ~/.ssh/authorized_keys
1.115 markus 1079: Lists the public keys (RSA/DSA) that can be used for logging in as this user.
1.40 aaron 1080: The format of this file is described in the
1.2 deraadt 1081: .Xr sshd 8
1.40 aaron 1082: manual page.
1.176 jmc 1083: In the simplest form the format is the same as the
1084: .Pa .pub
1.116 markus 1085: identity files.
1.48 markus 1086: This file is not highly sensitive, but the recommended
1087: permissions are read/write for the user, and not accessible by others.
1.147 deraadt 1088: .It Pa /etc/ssh/ssh_known_hosts
1.40 aaron 1089: Systemwide list of known host keys.
1.116 markus 1090: This file should be prepared by the
1.1 deraadt 1091: system administrator to contain the public host keys of all machines in the
1.40 aaron 1092: organization.
1093: This file should be world-readable.
1094: This file contains
1.1 deraadt 1095: public keys, one per line, in the following format (fields separated
1.116 markus 1096: by spaces): system name, public key and optional comment field.
1.40 aaron 1097: When different names are used
1.1 deraadt 1098: for the same machine, all such names should be listed, separated by
1.40 aaron 1099: commas.
1.176 jmc 1100: The format is described in the
1.2 deraadt 1101: .Xr sshd 8
1.1 deraadt 1102: manual page.
1.2 deraadt 1103: .Pp
1.1 deraadt 1104: The canonical system name (as returned by name servers) is used by
1.2 deraadt 1105: .Xr sshd 8
1.1 deraadt 1106: to verify the client host when logging in; other names are needed because
1.2 deraadt 1107: .Nm
1.1 deraadt 1108: does not convert the user-supplied name to a canonical name before
1109: checking the key, because someone with access to the name servers
1110: would then be able to fool host authentication.
1.147 deraadt 1111: .It Pa /etc/ssh/ssh_config
1.40 aaron 1112: Systemwide configuration file.
1.158 stevesk 1113: The file format and configuration options are described in
1114: .Xr ssh_config 5 .
1.147 deraadt 1115: .It Pa /etc/ssh/ssh_host_key, /etc/ssh/ssh_host_dsa_key, /etc/ssh/ssh_host_rsa_key
1.141 markus 1116: These three files contain the private parts of the host keys
1117: and are used for
1118: .Cm RhostsRSAAuthentication
1119: and
1120: .Cm HostbasedAuthentication .
1.155 stevesk 1121: If the protocol version 1
1122: .Cm RhostsRSAAuthentication
1.157 deraadt 1123: method is used,
1.155 stevesk 1124: .Nm
1125: must be setuid root, since the host key is readable only by root.
1126: For protocol version 2,
1127: .Nm
1128: uses
1129: .Xr ssh-keysign 8
1130: to access the host keys for
1131: .Cm HostbasedAuthentication .
1132: This eliminates the requirement that
1133: .Nm
1134: be setuid root when that authentication method is used.
1135: By default
1.141 markus 1136: .Nm
1.155 stevesk 1137: is not setuid root.
1.207 djm 1138: .It Pa ~/.rhosts
1.2 deraadt 1139: This file is used in
1.195 markus 1140: .Cm RhostsRSAAuthentication
1141: and
1142: .Cm HostbasedAuthentication
1.2 deraadt 1143: authentication to list the
1.40 aaron 1144: host/user pairs that are permitted to log in.
1145: (Note that this file is
1.1 deraadt 1146: also used by rlogin and rsh, which makes using this file insecure.)
1147: Each line of the file contains a host name (in the canonical form
1148: returned by name servers), and then a user name on that host,
1.40 aaron 1149: separated by a space.
1.92 markus 1150: On some machines this file may need to be
1.1 deraadt 1151: world-readable if the user's home directory is on a NFS partition,
1152: because
1.2 deraadt 1153: .Xr sshd 8
1.40 aaron 1154: reads it as root.
1155: Additionally, this file must be owned by the user,
1156: and must not have write permissions for anyone else.
1157: The recommended
1.1 deraadt 1158: permission for most machines is read/write for the user, and not
1159: accessible by others.
1.2 deraadt 1160: .Pp
1.195 markus 1161: Note that
1.2 deraadt 1162: .Xr sshd 8
1.195 markus 1163: allows authentication only in combination with client host key
1164: authentication before permitting log in.
1.137 deraadt 1165: If the server machine does not have the client's host key in
1.147 deraadt 1166: .Pa /etc/ssh/ssh_known_hosts ,
1.137 deraadt 1167: it can be stored in
1.207 djm 1168: .Pa ~/.ssh/known_hosts .
1.2 deraadt 1169: The easiest way to do this is to
1.1 deraadt 1170: connect back to the client from the server machine using ssh; this
1.48 markus 1171: will automatically add the host key to
1.207 djm 1172: .Pa ~/.ssh/known_hosts .
1173: .It Pa ~/.shosts
1.2 deraadt 1174: This file is used exactly the same way as
1.176 jmc 1175: .Pa .rhosts .
1.2 deraadt 1176: The purpose for
1.195 markus 1177: having this file is to be able to use
1178: .Cm RhostsRSAAuthentication
1179: and
1180: .Cm HostbasedAuthentication
1181: authentication without permitting login with
1.176 jmc 1182: .Xr rlogin
1.2 deraadt 1183: or
1184: .Xr rsh 1 .
1185: .It Pa /etc/hosts.equiv
1186: This file is used during
1.195 markus 1187: .Cm RhostsRSAAuthentication
1188: and
1189: .Cm HostbasedAuthentication
1.173 jmc 1190: authentication.
1.40 aaron 1191: It contains
1.176 jmc 1192: canonical hosts names, one per line (the full format is described in the
1.2 deraadt 1193: .Xr sshd 8
1.40 aaron 1194: manual page).
1195: If the client host is found in this file, login is
1.1 deraadt 1196: automatically permitted provided client and server user names are the
1.40 aaron 1197: same.
1.195 markus 1198: Additionally, successful client host key authentication is required.
1.40 aaron 1199: This file should only be writable by root.
1.2 deraadt 1200: .It Pa /etc/shosts.equiv
1.44 aaron 1201: This file is processed exactly as
1.2 deraadt 1202: .Pa /etc/hosts.equiv .
1.1 deraadt 1203: This file may be useful to permit logins using
1.2 deraadt 1204: .Nm
1.1 deraadt 1205: but not using rsh/rlogin.
1.147 deraadt 1206: .It Pa /etc/ssh/sshrc
1.1 deraadt 1207: Commands in this file are executed by
