1.2       deraadt    55: .Nm
1.40      aaron      56: (Secure Shell Daemon) is the daemon program for
1.2       deraadt    57: .Xr ssh 1 .
1.42      hugh       58: Together these programs replace rlogin and rsh, and
1.1       deraadt    59: provide secure encrypted communications between two untrusted hosts
1.36      aaron      60: over an insecure network.
                     61: The programs are intended to be as easy to
1.1       deraadt    62: install and use as possible.
1.2       deraadt    63: .Pp
                     64: .Nm
1.36      aaron      65: is the daemon that listens for connections from clients.
1.40      aaron      66: It is normally started at boot from
1.2       deraadt    67: .Pa /etc/rc .
                     68: It forks a new
1.36      aaron      69: daemon for each incoming connection.
                     70: The forked daemons handle
1.1       deraadt    71: key exchange, encryption, authentication, command execution,
                     72: and data exchange.
1.49      markus     73: This implementation of
                     74: .Nm
                     75: supports both SSH protocol version 1 and 2 simultaneously.
1.2       deraadt    76: .Nm
1.36      aaron      77: works as follows.
1.49      markus     78: .Pp
                     79: .Ss SSH protocol version 1
                     80: .Pp
1.36      aaron      81: Each host has a host-specific RSA key
                     82: (normally 1024 bits) used to identify the host.
                     83: Additionally, when
1.1       deraadt    84: the daemon starts, it generates a server RSA key (normally 768 bits).
                     85: This key is normally regenerated every hour if it has been used, and
                     86: is never stored on disk.
1.2       deraadt    87: .Pp
1.42      hugh       88: Whenever a client connects the daemon responds with its public
                     89: host and server keys.
1.36      aaron      90: The client compares the
1.49      markus     91: RSA host key against its own database to verify that it has not changed.
1.36      aaron      92: The client then generates a 256 bit random number.
                     93: It encrypts this
1.1       deraadt    94: random number using both the host key and the server key, and sends
1.36      aaron      95: the encrypted number to the server.
1.42      hugh       96: Both sides then use this
1.1       deraadt    97: random number as a session key which is used to encrypt all further
1.36      aaron      98: communications in the session.
                     99: The rest of the session is encrypted
1.42      hugh      100: using a conventional cipher, currently Blowfish or 3DES, with 3DES
1.39      deraadt   101: being used by default.
1.36      aaron     102: The client selects the encryption algorithm
1.5       deraadt   103: to use from those offered by the server.
1.2       deraadt   104: .Pp
1.36      aaron     105: Next, the server and the client enter an authentication dialog.
                    106: The client tries to authenticate itself using
1.2       deraadt   107: .Pa .rhosts
                    108: authentication,
                    109: .Pa .rhosts
                    110: authentication combined with RSA host
1.1       deraadt   111: authentication, RSA challenge-response authentication, or password
                    112: based authentication.
1.2       deraadt   113: .Pp
1.1       deraadt   114: Rhosts authentication is normally disabled
                    115: because it is fundamentally insecure, but can be enabled in the server
1.36      aaron     116: configuration file if desired.
                    117: System security is not improved unless
1.2       deraadt   118: .Xr rshd 8 ,
                    119: .Xr rlogind 8 ,
                    120: .Xr rexecd 8 ,
                    121: and
                    122: .Xr rexd 8
1.1       deraadt   123: are disabled (thus completely disabling
1.2       deraadt   124: .Xr rlogin 1
1.1       deraadt   125: and
1.2       deraadt   126: .Xr rsh 1
1.42      hugh      127: into the machine).
1.2       deraadt   128: .Pp
1.49      markus    129: .Ss SSH protocol version 2
                    130: .Pp
1.58      deraadt   131: Version 2 works similarly:
1.49      markus    132: Each host has a host-specific DSA key used to identify the host.
                    133: However, when the daemon starts, it does not generate a server key.
                    134: Forward security is provided through a Diffie-Hellman key agreement.
                    135: This key agreement results in a shared session key.
                    136: The rest of the session is encrypted
                    137: using a symmetric cipher, currently
                    138: Blowfish, 3DES or CAST128 in CBC mode or Arcfour.
                    139: The client selects the encryption algorithm
                    140: to use from those offered by the server.
                    141: Additionally, session integrity is provided
1.51      hugh      142: through a cryptographic message authentication code
1.49      markus    143: (hmac-sha1 or hmac-md5).
                    144: .Pp
                    145: Protocol version 2 provides a public key based
                    146: user authentication method (DSAAuthentication)
                    147: and conventional password authentication.
                    148: .Pp
                    149: .Ss Command execution and data forwarding
                    150: .Pp
1.1       deraadt   151: If the client successfully authenticates itself, a dialog for
1.36      aaron     152: preparing the session is entered.
                    153: At this time the client may request
1.1       deraadt   154: things like allocating a pseudo-tty, forwarding X11 connections,
                    155: forwarding TCP/IP connections, or forwarding the authentication agent
                    156: connection over the secure channel.
1.2       deraadt   157: .Pp
1.1       deraadt   158: Finally, the client either requests a shell or execution of a command.
1.36      aaron     159: The sides then enter session mode.
                    160: In this mode, either side may send
1.1       deraadt   161: data at any time, and such data is forwarded to/from the shell or
                    162: command on the server side, and the user terminal in the client side.
1.2       deraadt   163: .Pp
1.1       deraadt   164: When the user program terminates and all forwarded X11 and other
                    165: connections have been closed, the server sends command exit status to
                    166: the client, and both sides exit.
1.2       deraadt   167: .Pp
                    168: .Nm
1.1       deraadt   169: can be configured using command-line options or a configuration
1.36      aaron     170: file.
                    171: Command-line options override values specified in the
1.1       deraadt   172: configuration file.
1.25      markus    173: .Pp
                    174: .Nm
                    175: rereads its configuration file when it receives a hangup signal,

1.36      aaron     184: Debug mode.
                    185: The server sends verbose debug output to the system
                    186: log, and does not put itself in the background.
                    187: The server also will not fork and will only process one connection.
                    188: This option is only intended for debugging for the server.
1.67      aaron     189: Multiple -d options increases the debugging level.
                    190: Maximum is 3.
1.2       deraadt   191: .It Fl f Ar configuration_file
1.36      aaron     192: Specifies the name of the configuration file.
                    193: The default is
1.2       deraadt   194: .Pa /etc/sshd_config .
1.16      markus    195: .Nm
                    196: refuses to start if there is no configuration file.
1.2       deraadt   197: .It Fl g Ar login_grace_time
1.1       deraadt   198: Gives the grace time for clients to authenticate themselves (default
1.36      aaron     199: 300 seconds).
                    200: If the client fails to authenticate the user within
                    201: this many seconds, the server disconnects and exits.
                    202: A value of zero indicates no limit.
1.2       deraadt   203: .It Fl h Ar host_key_file
1.49      markus    204: Specifies the file from which the RSA host key is read (default

1.7       markus    214: .Nm
                    215: is normally not run
1.1       deraadt   216: from inetd because it needs to generate the server key before it can
1.36      aaron     217: respond to the client, and this may take tens of seconds.
                    218: Clients would have to wait too long if the key was regenerated every time.
1.35      aaron     219: However, with small key sizes (e.g., 512) using
1.7       markus    220: .Nm

1.1       deraadt   224: Specifies how often the server key is regenerated (default 3600
1.36      aaron     225: seconds, or one hour).
                    226: The motivation for regenerating the key fairly
1.1       deraadt   227: often is that the key is not stored anywhere, and after about an hour,
                    228: it becomes impossible to recover the key for decrypting intercepted
                    229: communications even if the machine is cracked into or physically
1.36      aaron     230: seized.
                    231: A value of zero indicates that the key will never be regenerated.
1.2       deraadt   232: .It Fl p Ar port
1.1       deraadt   233: Specifies the port on which the server listens for connections

                    238: Normally the beginning,
1.1       deraadt   239: authentication, and termination of each connection is logged.
1.61      markus    240: .It Fl u Ar len
                    241: This option is used to specify the size of the field

                    246: .Ar len ,
                    247: the dotted decimal value will be used instead.
                    248: This allows hosts with very long host names that
                    249: overflow this field to still be uniquely identified.
