SSH-KEYSIGN(8) OpenBSD System Manager's Manual SSH-KEYSIGN(8)
|
|
|
|
NAME
|
|
ssh-keysign - ssh helper program for host-based authentication
|
|
|
|
SYNOPSIS
|
|
ssh-keysign
|
|
|
|
DESCRIPTION
|
|
ssh-keysign is used by ssh(1) to access the local host keys and generate
|
|
the digital signature required during host-based authentication with SSH
|
|
protocol version 2.
|
|
|
|
ssh-keysign is disabled by default and can only be enabled in the global
|
|
client configuration file /etc/ssh/ssh_config by setting EnableSSHKeysign
|
|
to ``yes''.
|
|
|
|
ssh-keysign is not intended to be invoked by the user, but from ssh(1).
|
|
See ssh(1) and sshd(8) for more information about host-based authentica-
|
|
tion.
|
|
|
|
FILES
|
|
/etc/ssh/ssh_config
|
|
Controls whether ssh-keysign is enabled.
|
|
|
|
/etc/ssh/ssh_host_dsa_key, /etc/ssh/ssh_host_rsa_key
|
|
These files contain the private parts of the host keys used to
|
|
generate the digital signature. They should be owned by root,
|
|
readable only by root, and not accessible to others. Since they
|
|
are readable only by root, ssh-keysign must be set-uid root if
|
|
host-based authentication is used.
|
|
|
|
