SSH_CONFIG(5) File Formats Manual SSH_CONFIG(5)

|
|
|
NAME
|
|
ssh_config M-bM-^@M-^S OpenSSH SSH client configuration files
|
|
|
|
DESCRIPTION
|
|
ssh(1) obtains configuration data from the following sources in the
|
|
following order:
|
|
|
|
1. command-line options
|
|
2. user's configuration file (~/.ssh/config)
|
|
3. system-wide configuration file (/etc/ssh/ssh_config)
|
|
|
|
For each parameter, the first obtained value will be used. The
|
|
configuration files contain sections separated by Host specifications,
|
|
and that section is only applied for hosts that match one of the patterns
|
|
given in the specification. The matched host name is usually the one
|
|
given on the command line (see the CanonicalizeHostname option for
|
|
exceptions).
|
|
|
|
Since the first obtained value for each parameter is used, more host-
|
|
specific declarations should be given near the beginning of the file, and
|
|
general defaults at the end.
|
|
|
|
The file contains keyword-argument pairs, one per line. Lines starting
|
|
with M-bM-^@M-^X#M-bM-^@M-^Y and empty lines are interpreted as comments. Arguments may
|
|
optionally be enclosed in double quotes (") in order to represent
|
|
arguments containing spaces. Configuration options may be separated by
|
|
whitespace or optional whitespace and exactly one M-bM-^@M-^X=M-bM-^@M-^Y; the latter format
|
|
is useful to avoid the need to quote whitespace when specifying
|
|
configuration options using the ssh, scp, and sftp -o option.
|
|
|
|
The possible keywords and their meanings are as follows (note that
|
|
keywords are case-insensitive and arguments are case-sensitive):
|
|
|
|
Host Restricts the following declarations (up to the next Host or
|
|
Match keyword) to be only for those hosts that match one of the
|
|
patterns given after the keyword. If more than one pattern is
|
|
provided, they should be separated by whitespace. A single M-bM-^@M-^X*M-bM-^@M-^Y
|
|
as a pattern can be used to provide global defaults for all
|
|
hosts. The host is usually the hostname argument given on the
|
|
command line (see the CanonicalizeHostname keyword for
|
|
exceptions).
|
|
|
|
A pattern entry may be negated by prefixing it with an
|
|
exclamation mark (M-bM-^@M-^X!M-bM-^@M-^Y). If a negated entry is matched, then the
|
|
Host entry is ignored, regardless of whether any other patterns
|
|
on the line match. Negated matches are therefore useful to
|
|
provide exceptions for wildcard matches.
|
|
|
|
See PATTERNS for more information on patterns.
|
|
|
|
Match Restricts the following declarations (up to the next Host or
|
|
Match keyword) to be used only when the conditions following the
|
|
Match keyword are satisfied. Match conditions are specified
|
|
using one or more criteria or the single token all which always
|
|
matches. The available criteria keywords are: canonical, exec,
|
|
host, originalhost, user, and localuser. The all criteria must
|
|
appear alone or immediately after canonical. Other criteria may
|
|
be combined arbitrarily. All criteria but all and canonical
|
|
require an argument. Criteria may be negated by prepending an
|
|
exclamation mark (M-bM-^@M-^X!M-bM-^@M-^Y).
|
|
|
|
The canonical keyword matches only when the configuration file is
|
|
being re-parsed after hostname canonicalization (see the
|
|
CanonicalizeHostname option.) This may be useful to specify
|
|
conditions that work with canonical host names only. The exec
|
|
keyword executes the specified command under the user's shell.
|
|
If the command returns a zero exit status then the condition is
|
|
considered true. Commands containing whitespace characters must
|
|
be quoted. Arguments to exec accept the tokens described in the
|
|
TOKENS section.
|
|
|
|
The other keywords' criteria must be single entries or comma-
|
|
separated lists and may use the wildcard and negation operators
|
|
described in the PATTERNS section. The criteria for the host
|
|
keyword are matched against the target hostname, after any
|
|
substitution by the Hostname or CanonicalizeHostname options.
|
|
The originalhost keyword matches against the hostname as it was
|
|
specified on the command-line. The user keyword matches against
|
|
the target username on the remote host. The localuser keyword
|
|
matches against the name of the local user running ssh(1) (this
|
|
keyword may be useful in system-wide ssh_config files).
|
|
|
|
AddKeysToAgent
|
|
Specifies whether keys should be automatically added to a running
|
|
ssh-agent(1). If this option is set to yes and a key is loaded
|
|
from a file, the key and its passphrase are added to the agent
|
|
with the default lifetime, as if by ssh-add(1). If this option
|
|
is set to ask, ssh(1) will require confirmation using the
|
|
SSH_ASKPASS program before adding a key (see ssh-add(1) for
|
|
details). If this option is set to confirm, each use of the key
|
|
must be confirmed, as if the -c option was specified to
|
|
ssh-add(1). If this option is set to no, no keys are added to
|
|
the agent. The argument must be yes, confirm, ask, or no (the
|
|
default).
|
|
|
|
AddressFamily
|
|
Specifies which address family to use when connecting. Valid
|
|
arguments are any (the default), inet (use IPv4 only), or inet6
|
|
(use IPv6 only).
|
|
|
|
BatchMode
|
|
If set to yes, passphrase/password querying will be disabled.
|
|
This option is useful in scripts and other batch jobs where no
|
|
user is present to supply the password. The argument must be yes
|
|
or no (the default).
|
|
|
|
BindAddress
|
|
Use the specified address on the local machine as the source
|
|
address of the connection. Only useful on systems with more than
|
|
one address. Note that this option does not work if
|
|
UsePrivilegedPort is set to yes.
|
|
|
|
CanonicalDomains
|
|
When CanonicalizeHostname is enabled, this option specifies the
|
|
list of domain suffixes in which to search for the specified
|
|
destination host.
|
|
|
|
CanonicalizeFallbackLocal
|
|
Specifies whether to fail with an error when hostname
|
|
canonicalization fails. The default, yes, will attempt to look
|
|
up the unqualified hostname using the system resolver's search
|
|
rules. A value of no will cause ssh(1) to fail instantly if
|
|
CanonicalizeHostname is enabled and the target hostname cannot be
|
|
found in any of the domains specified by CanonicalDomains.
|
|
|
|
CanonicalizeHostname
|
|
Controls whether explicit hostname canonicalization is performed.
|
|
The default, no, is not to perform any name rewriting and let the
|
|
system resolver handle all hostname lookups. If set to yes then,
|
|
for connections that do not use a ProxyCommand, ssh(1) will
|
|
attempt to canonicalize the hostname specified on the command
|
|
line using the CanonicalDomains suffixes and
|
|
CanonicalizePermittedCNAMEs rules. If CanonicalizeHostname is
|
|
set to always, then canonicalization is applied to proxied
|
|
connections too.
|
|
|
|
If this option is enabled, then the configuration files are
|
|
processed again using the new target name to pick up any new
|
|
configuration in matching Host and Match stanzas.
|
|
|
|
CanonicalizeMaxDots
|
|
Specifies the maximum number of dot characters in a hostname
|
|
before canonicalization is disabled. The default, 1, allows a
|
|
single dot (i.e. hostname.subdomain).
|
|
|
|
CanonicalizePermittedCNAMEs
|
|
Specifies rules to determine whether CNAMEs should be followed
|
|
when canonicalizing hostnames. The rules consist of one or more
|
|
arguments of source_domain_list:target_domain_list, where
|
|
source_domain_list is a pattern-list of domains that may follow
|
|
CNAMEs in canonicalization, and target_domain_list is a pattern-
|
|
list of domains that they may resolve to.
|
|
|
|
For example, "*.a.example.com:*.b.example.com,*.c.example.com"
|
|
will allow hostnames matching "*.a.example.com" to be
|
|
canonicalized to names in the "*.b.example.com" or
|
|
"*.c.example.com" domains.
|
|
|
|
CertificateFile
|
|
Specifies a file from which the user's certificate is read. A
|
|
corresponding private key must be provided separately in order to
|
|
use this certificate either from an IdentityFile directive or -i
|
|
flag to ssh(1), via ssh-agent(1), or via a PKCS11Provider.
|
|
|
|
Arguments to CertificateFile may use the tilde syntax to refer to
|
|
a user's home directory or the tokens described in the TOKENS
|
|
section.
|
|
|
|
It is possible to have multiple certificate files specified in
|
|
configuration files; these certificates will be tried in
|
|
sequence. Multiple CertificateFile directives will add to the
|
|
list of certificates used for authentication.
|
|
|
|
ChallengeResponseAuthentication
|
|
Specifies whether to use challenge-response authentication. The
|
|
argument to this keyword must be yes (the default) or no.
|
|
|
|
CheckHostIP
|
|
If set to yes (the default), ssh(1) will additionally check the
|
|
host IP address in the known_hosts file. This allows it to
|
|
detect if a host key changed due to DNS spoofing and will add
|
|
addresses of destination hosts to ~/.ssh/known_hosts in the
|
|
process, regardless of the setting of StrictHostKeyChecking. If
|
|
the option is set to no, the check will not be executed.
|
|
|
|
Ciphers
|
|
Specifies the ciphers allowed and their order of preference.
|
|
Multiple ciphers must be comma-separated. If the specified value
|
|
begins with a M-bM-^@M-^X+M-bM-^@M-^Y character, then the specified ciphers will be
|
|
appended to the default set instead of replacing them. If the
|
|
specified value begins with a M-bM-^@M-^X-M-bM-^@M-^Y character, then the specified
|
|
ciphers (including wildcards) will be removed from the default
|
|
set instead of replacing them.
|
|
|
|
The supported ciphers are:
|
|
|
|
3des-cbc
|
|
aes128-cbc
|
|
aes192-cbc
|
|
aes256-cbc
|
|
aes128-ctr
|
|
aes192-ctr
|
|
aes256-ctr
|
|
aes128-gcm@openssh.com
|
|
aes256-gcm@openssh.com
|
|
chacha20-poly1305@openssh.com
|
|
|
|
The default is:
|
|
|
|
chacha20-poly1305@openssh.com,
|
|
aes128-ctr,aes192-ctr,aes256-ctr,
|
|
aes128-gcm@openssh.com,aes256-gcm@openssh.com,
|
|
aes128-cbc,aes192-cbc,aes256-cbc
|
|
|
|
The list of available ciphers may also be obtained using "ssh -Q
|
|
cipher".
|
|
|
|
ClearAllForwardings
|
|
Specifies that all local, remote, and dynamic port forwardings
|
|
specified in the configuration files or on the command line be
|
|
cleared. This option is primarily useful when used from the
|
|
ssh(1) command line to clear port forwardings set in
|
|
configuration files, and is automatically set by scp(1) and
|
|
sftp(1). The argument must be yes or no (the default).
|
|
|
|
Compression
|
|
Specifies whether to use compression. The argument must be yes
|
|
or no (the default).
|
|
|
|
ConnectionAttempts
|
|
Specifies the number of tries (one per second) to make before
|
|
exiting. The argument must be an integer. This may be useful in
|
|
scripts if the connection sometimes fails. The default is 1.
|
|
|
|
ConnectTimeout
|
|
Specifies the timeout (in seconds) used when connecting to the
|
|
SSH server, instead of using the default system TCP timeout.
|
|
This value is used only when the target is down or really
|
|
unreachable, not when it refuses the connection.
|
|
|
|
ControlMaster
|
|
Enables the sharing of multiple sessions over a single network
|
|
connection. When set to yes, ssh(1) will listen for connections
|
|
on a control socket specified using the ControlPath argument.
|
|
Additional sessions can connect to this socket using the same
|
|
ControlPath with ControlMaster set to no (the default). These
|
|
sessions will try to reuse the master instance's network
|
|
connection rather than initiating new ones, but will fall back to
|
|
connecting normally if the control socket does not exist, or is
|
|
not listening.
|
|
|
|
Setting this to ask will cause ssh(1) to listen for control
|
|
connections, but require confirmation using ssh-askpass(1). If
|
|
the ControlPath cannot be opened, ssh(1) will continue without
|
|
connecting to a master instance.
|
|
|
|
X11 and ssh-agent(1) forwarding is supported over these
|
|
multiplexed connections, however the display and agent forwarded
|
|
will be the one belonging to the master connection i.e. it is not
|
|
possible to forward multiple displays or agents.
|
|
|
|
Two additional options allow for opportunistic multiplexing: try
|
|
to use a master connection but fall back to creating a new one if
|
|
one does not already exist. These options are: auto and autoask.
|
|
The latter requires confirmation like the ask option.
|
|
|
|
ControlPath
|
|
Specify the path to the control socket used for connection
|
|
sharing as described in the ControlMaster section above or the
|
|
string none to disable connection sharing. Arguments to
|
|
ControlPath may use the tilde syntax to refer to a user's home
|
|
directory or the tokens described in the TOKENS section. It is
|
|
recommended that any ControlPath used for opportunistic
|
|
connection sharing include at least %h, %p, and %r (or
|
|
alternatively %C) and be placed in a directory that is not
|
|
writable by other users. This ensures that shared connections
|
|
are uniquely identified.
|
|
|
|
ControlPersist
|
|
When used in conjunction with ControlMaster, specifies that the
|
|
master connection should remain open in the background (waiting
|
|
for future client connections) after the initial client
|
|
connection has been closed. If set to no, then the master
|
|
connection will not be placed into the background, and will close
|
|
as soon as the initial client connection is closed. If set to
|
|
yes or 0, then the master connection will remain in the
|
|
background indefinitely (until killed or closed via a mechanism
|
|
such as the "ssh -O exit"). If set to a time in seconds, or a
|
|
time in any of the formats documented in sshd_config(5), then the
|
|
backgrounded master connection will automatically terminate after
|
|
it has remained idle (with no client connections) for the
|
|
specified time.
|
|
|
|
DynamicForward
|
|
Specifies that a TCP port on the local machine be forwarded over
|
|
the secure channel, and the application protocol is then used to
|
|
determine where to connect to from the remote machine.
|
|
|
|
The argument must be [bind_address:]port. IPv6 addresses can be
|
|
specified by enclosing addresses in square brackets. By default,
|
|
the local port is bound in accordance with the GatewayPorts
|
|
setting. However, an explicit bind_address may be used to bind
|
|
the connection to a specific address. The bind_address of
|
|
localhost indicates that the listening port be bound for local
|
|
use only, while an empty address or M-bM-^@M-^X*M-bM-^@M-^Y indicates that the port
|
|
should be available from all interfaces.
|
|
|
|
Currently the SOCKS4 and SOCKS5 protocols are supported, and
|
|
ssh(1) will act as a SOCKS server. Multiple forwardings may be
|
|
specified, and additional forwardings can be given on the command
|
|
line. Only the superuser can forward privileged ports.
|
|
|
|
EnableSSHKeysign
|
|
Setting this option to yes in the global client configuration
|
|
file /etc/ssh/ssh_config enables the use of the helper program
|
|
ssh-keysign(8) during HostbasedAuthentication. The argument must
|
|
be yes or no (the default). This option should be placed in the
|
|
non-hostspecific section. See ssh-keysign(8) for more
|
|
information.
|
|
|
|
EscapeChar
|
|
Sets the escape character (default: M-bM-^@M-^X~M-bM-^@M-^Y). The escape character
|
|
can also be set on the command line. The argument should be a
|
|
single character, M-bM-^@M-^X^M-bM-^@M-^Y followed by a letter, or none to disable
|
|
the escape character entirely (making the connection transparent
|
|
for binary data).
|
|
|
|
ExitOnForwardFailure
|
|
Specifies whether ssh(1) should terminate the connection if it
|
|
cannot set up all requested dynamic, tunnel, local, and remote
|
|
port forwardings, (e.g. if either end is unable to bind and
|
|
listen on a specified port). Note that ExitOnForwardFailure does
|
|
not apply to connections made over port forwardings and will not,
|
|
for example, cause ssh(1) to exit if TCP connections to the
|
|
ultimate forwarding destination fail. The argument must be yes
|
|
or no (the default).
|
|
|
|
FingerprintHash
|
|
Specifies the hash algorithm used when displaying key
|
|
fingerprints. Valid options are: md5 and sha256 (the default).
|
|
|
|
ForwardAgent
|
|
Specifies whether the connection to the authentication agent (if
|
|
any) will be forwarded to the remote machine. The argument must
|
|
be yes or no (the default).
|
|
|
|
Agent forwarding should be enabled with caution. Users with the
|
|
ability to bypass file permissions on the remote host (for the
|
|
agent's Unix-domain socket) can access the local agent through
|
|
the forwarded connection. An attacker cannot obtain key material
|
|
from the agent, however they can perform operations on the keys
|
|
that enable them to authenticate using the identities loaded into
|
|
the agent.
|
|
|
|
ForwardX11
|
|
Specifies whether X11 connections will be automatically
|
|
redirected over the secure channel and DISPLAY set. The argument
|
|
must be yes or no (the default).
|
|
|
|
X11 forwarding should be enabled with caution. Users with the
|
|
ability to bypass file permissions on the remote host (for the
|
|
user's X11 authorization database) can access the local X11
|
|
display through the forwarded connection. An attacker may then
|
|
be able to perform activities such as keystroke monitoring if the
|
|
ForwardX11Trusted option is also enabled.
|
|
|
|
ForwardX11Timeout
|
|
Specify a timeout for untrusted X11 forwarding using the format
|
|
described in the TIME FORMATS section of sshd_config(5). X11
|
|
connections received by ssh(1) after this time will be refused.
|
|
The default is to disable untrusted X11 forwarding after twenty
|
|
minutes has elapsed.
|
|
|
|
ForwardX11Trusted
|
|
If this option is set to yes, remote X11 clients will have full
|
|
access to the original X11 display.
|
|
|
|
If this option is set to no (the default), remote X11 clients
|
|
will be considered untrusted and prevented from stealing or
|
|
tampering with data belonging to trusted X11 clients.
|
|
Furthermore, the xauth(1) token used for the session will be set
|
|
to expire after 20 minutes. Remote clients will be refused
|
|
access after this time.
|
|
|
|
See the X11 SECURITY extension specification for full details on
|
|
the restrictions imposed on untrusted clients.
|
|
|
|
GatewayPorts
|
|
Specifies whether remote hosts are allowed to connect to local
|
|
forwarded ports. By default, ssh(1) binds local port forwardings
|
|
to the loopback address. This prevents other remote hosts from
|
|
connecting to forwarded ports. GatewayPorts can be used to
|
|
specify that ssh should bind local port forwardings to the
|
|
wildcard address, thus allowing remote hosts to connect to
|
|
forwarded ports. The argument must be yes or no (the default).
|
|
|
|
GlobalKnownHostsFile
|
|
Specifies one or more files to use for the global host key
|
|
database, separated by whitespace. The default is
|
|
/etc/ssh/ssh_known_hosts, /etc/ssh/ssh_known_hosts2.
|
|
|
|
GSSAPIAuthentication
|
|
Specifies whether user authentication based on GSSAPI is allowed.
|
|
The default is no.
|
|
|
|
GSSAPIDelegateCredentials
|
|
Forward (delegate) credentials to the server. The default is no.
|
|
|
|
HashKnownHosts
|
|
Indicates that ssh(1) should hash host names and addresses when
|
|
they are added to ~/.ssh/known_hosts. These hashed names may be
|
|
used normally by ssh(1) and sshd(8), but they do not reveal
|
|
identifying information should the file's contents be disclosed.
|
|
The default is no. Note that existing names and addresses in
|
|
known hosts files will not be converted automatically, but may be
|
|
manually hashed using ssh-keygen(1).
|
|
|
|
HostbasedAuthentication
|
|
Specifies whether to try rhosts based authentication with public
|
|
key authentication. The argument must be yes or no (the
|
|
default).
|
|
|
|
HostbasedKeyTypes
|
|
Specifies the key types that will be used for hostbased
|
|
authentication as a comma-separated pattern list. Alternately if
|
|
the specified value begins with a M-bM-^@M-^X+M-bM-^@M-^Y character, then the
|
|
specified key types will be appended to the default set instead
|
|
of replacing them. If the specified value begins with a M-bM-^@M-^X-M-bM-^@M-^Y
|
|
character, then the specified key types (including wildcards)
|
|
will be removed from the default set instead of replacing them.
|
|
The default for this option is:
|
|
|
|
ecdsa-sha2-nistp256-cert-v01@openssh.com,
|
|
ecdsa-sha2-nistp384-cert-v01@openssh.com,
|
|
ecdsa-sha2-nistp521-cert-v01@openssh.com,
|
|
ssh-ed25519-cert-v01@openssh.com,
|
|
ssh-rsa-cert-v01@openssh.com,
|
|
ecdsa-sha2-nistp256,ecdsa-sha2-nistp384,ecdsa-sha2-nistp521,
|
|
ssh-ed25519,ssh-rsa
|
|
|
|
The -Q option of ssh(1) may be used to list supported key types.
|
|
|
|
HostKeyAlgorithms
|
|
Specifies the host key algorithms that the client wants to use in
|
|
order of preference. Alternately if the specified value begins
|
|
with a M-bM-^@M-^X+M-bM-^@M-^Y character, then the specified key types will be
|
|
appended to the default set instead of replacing them. If the
|
|
specified value begins with a M-bM-^@M-^X-M-bM-^@M-^Y character, then the specified
|
|
key types (including wildcards) will be removed from the default
|
|
set instead of replacing them. The default for this option is:
|
|
|
|
ecdsa-sha2-nistp256-cert-v01@openssh.com,
|
|
ecdsa-sha2-nistp384-cert-v01@openssh.com,
|
|
ecdsa-sha2-nistp521-cert-v01@openssh.com,
|
|
ssh-ed25519-cert-v01@openssh.com,
|
|
ssh-rsa-cert-v01@openssh.com,
|
|
ecdsa-sha2-nistp256,ecdsa-sha2-nistp384,ecdsa-sha2-nistp521,
|
|
ssh-ed25519,ssh-rsa
|
|
|
|
If hostkeys are known for the destination host then this default
|
|
is modified to prefer their algorithms.
|
|
|
|
The list of available key types may also be obtained using "ssh
|
|
-Q key".
|
|
|
|
HostKeyAlias
|
|
Specifies an alias that should be used instead of the real host
|
|
name when looking up or saving the host key in the host key
|
|
database files and when validating host certificates. This
|
|
option is useful for tunneling SSH connections or for multiple
|
|
servers running on a single host.
|
|
|
|
HostName
|
|
Specifies the real host name to log into. This can be used to
|
|
specify nicknames or abbreviations for hosts. Arguments to
|
|
HostName accept the tokens described in the TOKENS section.
|
|
Numeric IP addresses are also permitted (both on the command line
|
|
and in HostName specifications). The default is the name given
|
|
on the command line.
|
|
|
|
IdentitiesOnly
|
|
Specifies that ssh(1) should only use the authentication identity
|
|
and certificate files explicitly configured in the ssh_config
|
|
files or passed on the ssh(1) command-line, even if ssh-agent(1)
|
|
or a PKCS11Provider offers more identities. The argument to this
|
|
keyword must be yes or no (the default). This option is intended
|
|
for situations where ssh-agent offers many different identities.
|
|
|
|
IdentityAgent
|
|
Specifies the UNIX-domain socket used to communicate with the
|
|
authentication agent.
|
|
|
|
This option overrides the SSH_AUTH_SOCK environment variable and
|
|
can be used to select a specific agent. Setting the socket name
|
|
to none disables the use of an authentication agent. If the
|
|
string "SSH_AUTH_SOCK" is specified, the location of the socket
|
|
will be read from the SSH_AUTH_SOCK environment variable.
|
|
|
|
Arguments to IdentityAgent may use the tilde syntax to refer to a
|
|
user's home directory or the tokens described in the TOKENS
|
|
section.
|
|
|
|
IdentityFile
|
|
Specifies a file from which the user's DSA, ECDSA, Ed25519 or RSA
|
|
authentication identity is read. The default is ~/.ssh/id_dsa,
|
|
~/.ssh/id_ecdsa, ~/.ssh/id_ed25519 and ~/.ssh/id_rsa.
|
|
Additionally, any identities represented by the authentication
|
|
agent will be used for authentication unless IdentitiesOnly is
|
|
set. If no certificates have been explicitly specified by
|
|
CertificateFile, ssh(1) will try to load certificate information
|
|
from the filename obtained by appending -cert.pub to the path of
|
|
a specified IdentityFile.
|
|
|
|
Arguments to IdentityFile may use the tilde syntax to refer to a
|
|
user's home directory or the tokens described in the TOKENS
|
|
section.
|
|
|
|
It is possible to have multiple identity files specified in
|
|
configuration files; all these identities will be tried in
|
|
sequence. Multiple IdentityFile directives will add to the list
|
|
of identities tried (this behaviour differs from that of other
|
|
configuration directives).
|
|
|
|
IdentityFile may be used in conjunction with IdentitiesOnly to
|
|
select which identities in an agent are offered during
|
|
authentication. IdentityFile may also be used in conjunction
|
|
with CertificateFile in order to provide any certificate also
|
|
needed for authentication with the identity.
|
|
|
|
IgnoreUnknown
|
|
Specifies a pattern-list of unknown options to be ignored if they
|
|
are encountered in configuration parsing. This may be used to
|
|
suppress errors if ssh_config contains options that are
|
|
unrecognised by ssh(1). It is recommended that IgnoreUnknown be
|
|
listed early in the configuration file as it will not be applied
|
|
to unknown options that appear before it.
|
|
|
|
Include
|
|
Include the specified configuration file(s). Multiple pathnames
|
|
may be specified and each pathname may contain glob(3) wildcards
|
|
and, for user configurations, shell-like M-bM-^@M-^X~M-bM-^@M-^Y references to user
|
|
home directories. Files without absolute paths are assumed to be
|
|
in ~/.ssh if included in a user configuration file or /etc/ssh if
|
|
included from the system configuration file. Include directive
|
|
may appear inside a Match or Host block to perform conditional
|
|
inclusion.
|
|
|
|
IPQoS Specifies the IPv4 type-of-service or DSCP class for connections.
|
|
Accepted values are af11, af12, af13, af21, af22, af23, af31,
|
|
af32, af33, af41, af42, af43, cs0, cs1, cs2, cs3, cs4, cs5, cs6,
|
|
cs7, ef, lowdelay, throughput, reliability, a numeric value, or
|
|
none to use the operating system default. This option may take
|
|
one or two arguments, separated by whitespace. If one argument
|
|
is specified, it is used as the packet class unconditionally. If
|
|
two values are specified, the first is automatically selected for
|
|
interactive sessions and the second for non-interactive sessions.
|
|
The default is lowdelay for interactive sessions and throughput
|
|
for non-interactive sessions.
|
|
|
|
KbdInteractiveAuthentication
|
|
Specifies whether to use keyboard-interactive authentication.
|
|
The argument to this keyword must be yes (the default) or no.
|
|
|
|
KbdInteractiveDevices
|
|
Specifies the list of methods to use in keyboard-interactive
|
|
authentication. Multiple method names must be comma-separated.
|
|
The default is to use the server specified list. The methods
|
|
available vary depending on what the server supports. For an
|
|
OpenSSH server, it may be zero or more of: bsdauth, pam, and
|
|
skey.
|
|
|
|
KexAlgorithms
|
|
Specifies the available KEX (Key Exchange) algorithms. Multiple
|
|
algorithms must be comma-separated. Alternately if the specified
|
|
value begins with a M-bM-^@M-^X+M-bM-^@M-^Y character, then the specified methods
|
|
will be appended to the default set instead of replacing them.
|
|
If the specified value begins with a M-bM-^@M-^X-M-bM-^@M-^Y character, then the
|
|
specified methods (including wildcards) will be removed from the
|
|
default set instead of replacing them. The default is:
|
|
|
|
curve25519-sha256,curve25519-sha256@libssh.org,
|
|
ecdh-sha2-nistp256,ecdh-sha2-nistp384,ecdh-sha2-nistp521,
|
|
diffie-hellman-group-exchange-sha256,
|
|
diffie-hellman-group-exchange-sha1,
|
|
diffie-hellman-group14-sha1
|
|
|
|
The list of available key exchange algorithms may also be
|
|
obtained using "ssh -Q kex".
|
|
|
|
LocalCommand
|
|
Specifies a command to execute on the local machine after
|
|
successfully connecting to the server. The command string
|
|
extends to the end of the line, and is executed with the user's
|
|
shell. Arguments to LocalCommand accept the tokens described in
|
|
the TOKENS section.
|
|
|
|
The command is run synchronously and does not have access to the
|
|
session of the ssh(1) that spawned it. It should not be used for
|
|
interactive commands.
|
|
|
|
This directive is ignored unless PermitLocalCommand has been
|
|
enabled.
|
|
|
|
LocalForward
|
|
Specifies that a TCP port on the local machine be forwarded over
|
|
the secure channel to the specified host and port from the remote
|
|
machine. The first argument must be [bind_address:]port and the
|
|
second argument must be host:hostport. IPv6 addresses can be
|
|
specified by enclosing addresses in square brackets. Multiple
|
|
forwardings may be specified, and additional forwardings can be
|
|
given on the command line. Only the superuser can forward
|
|
privileged ports. By default, the local port is bound in
|
|
accordance with the GatewayPorts setting. However, an explicit
|
|
bind_address may be used to bind the connection to a specific
|
|
address. The bind_address of localhost indicates that the
|
|
listening port be bound for local use only, while an empty
|
|
address or M-bM-^@M-^X*M-bM-^@M-^Y indicates that the port should be available from
|
|
all interfaces.
|
|
|
|
LogLevel
|
|
Gives the verbosity level that is used when logging messages from
|
|
ssh(1). The possible values are: QUIET, FATAL, ERROR, INFO,
|
|
VERBOSE, DEBUG, DEBUG1, DEBUG2, and DEBUG3. The default is INFO.
|
|
DEBUG and DEBUG1 are equivalent. DEBUG2 and DEBUG3 each specify
|
|
higher levels of verbose output.
|
|
|
|
MACs Specifies the MAC (message authentication code) algorithms in
|
|
order of preference. The MAC algorithm is used for data
|
|
integrity protection. Multiple algorithms must be comma-
|
|
separated. If the specified value begins with a M-bM-^@M-^X+M-bM-^@M-^Y character,
|
|
then the specified algorithms will be appended to the default set
|
|
instead of replacing them. If the specified value begins with a
|
|
M-bM-^@M-^X-M-bM-^@M-^Y character, then the specified algorithms (including
|
|
wildcards) will be removed from the default set instead of
|
|
replacing them.
|
|
|
|
The algorithms that contain "-etm" calculate the MAC after
|
|
encryption (encrypt-then-mac). These are considered safer and
|
|
their use recommended.
|
|
|
|
The default is:
|
|
|
|
umac-64-etm@openssh.com,umac-128-etm@openssh.com,
|
|
hmac-sha2-256-etm@openssh.com,hmac-sha2-512-etm@openssh.com,
|
|
hmac-sha1-etm@openssh.com,
|
|
umac-64@openssh.com,umac-128@openssh.com,
|
|
hmac-sha2-256,hmac-sha2-512,hmac-sha1
|
|
|
|
The list of available MAC algorithms may also be obtained using
|
|
"ssh -Q mac".
|
|
|
|
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 yes or no (the default).
|
|
|
|
NumberOfPasswordPrompts
|
|
Specifies the number of password prompts before giving up. The
|
|
argument to this keyword must be an integer. The default is 3.
|
|
|
|
PasswordAuthentication
|
|
Specifies whether to use password authentication. The argument
|
|
to this keyword must be yes (the default) or no.
|
|
|
|
PermitLocalCommand
|
|
Allow local command execution via the LocalCommand option or
|
|
using the !command escape sequence in ssh(1). The argument must
|
|
be yes or no (the default).
|
|
|
|
PKCS11Provider
|
|
Specifies which PKCS#11 provider to use. The argument to this
|
|
keyword is the PKCS#11 shared library ssh(1) should use to
|
|
communicate with a PKCS#11 token providing the user's private RSA
|
|
key.
|
|
|
|
Port Specifies the port number to connect on the remote host. The
|
|
default is 22.
|
|
|
|
PreferredAuthentications
|
|
Specifies the order in which the client should try authentication
|
|
methods. This allows a client to prefer one method (e.g.
|
|
keyboard-interactive) over another method (e.g. password). The
|
|
default is:
|
|
|
|
gssapi-with-mic,hostbased,publickey,
|
|
keyboard-interactive,password
|
|
|
|
ProxyCommand
|
|
Specifies the command to use to connect to the server. The
|
|
command string extends to the end of the line, and is executed
|
|
using the user's shell M-bM-^@M-^XexecM-bM-^@M-^Y directive to avoid a lingering
|
|
shell process.
|
|
|
|
Arguments to ProxyCommand accept the tokens described in the
|
|
TOKENS section. The command can be basically anything, and
|
|
should read from its standard input and write to its standard
|
|
output. It should eventually connect an sshd(8) server running
|
|
on some machine, or execute 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). Setting
|
|
the command to none disables this option entirely. Note that
|
|
CheckHostIP is not available for connects with a proxy command.
|
|
|
|
This directive is useful in conjunction with nc(1) and its proxy
|
|
support. For example, the following directive would connect via
|
|
an HTTP proxy at 192.0.2.0:
|
|
|
|
ProxyCommand /usr/bin/nc -X connect -x 192.0.2.0:8080 %h %p
|
|
|
|
ProxyJump
|
|
Specifies one or more jump proxies as [user@]host[:port].
|
|
Multiple proxies may be separated by comma characters and will be
|
|
visited sequentially. Setting this option will cause ssh(1) to
|
|
connect to the target host by first making a ssh(1) connection to
|
|
the specified ProxyJump host and then establishing a TCP
|
|
forwarding to the ultimate target from there.
|
|
|
|
Note that this option will compete with the ProxyCommand option -
|
|
whichever is specified first will prevent later instances of the
|
|
other from taking effect.
|
|
|
|
ProxyUseFdpass
|
|
Specifies that ProxyCommand will pass a connected file descriptor
|
|
back to ssh(1) instead of continuing to execute and pass data.
|
|
The default is no.
|
|
|
|
PubkeyAcceptedKeyTypes
|
|
Specifies the key types that will be used for public key
|
|
authentication as a comma-separated pattern list. Alternately if
|
|
the specified value begins with a M-bM-^@M-^X+M-bM-^@M-^Y character, then the key
|
|
types after it will be appended to the default instead of
|
|
replacing it. If the specified value begins with a M-bM-^@M-^X-M-bM-^@M-^Y
|
|
character, then the specified key types (including wildcards)
|
|
will be removed from the default set instead of replacing them.
|
|
The default for this option is:
|
|
|
|
ecdsa-sha2-nistp256-cert-v01@openssh.com,
|
|
ecdsa-sha2-nistp384-cert-v01@openssh.com,
|
|
ecdsa-sha2-nistp521-cert-v01@openssh.com,
|
|
ssh-ed25519-cert-v01@openssh.com,
|
|
ssh-rsa-cert-v01@openssh.com,
|
|
ecdsa-sha2-nistp256,ecdsa-sha2-nistp384,ecdsa-sha2-nistp521,
|
|
ssh-ed25519,ssh-rsa
|
|
|
|
The list of available key types may also be obtained using "ssh
|
|
-Q key".
|
|
|
|
PubkeyAuthentication
|
|
Specifies whether to try public key authentication. The argument
|
|
to this keyword must be yes (the default) or no.
|
|
|
|
RekeyLimit
|
|
Specifies the maximum amount of data that may be transmitted
|
|
before the session key is renegotiated, optionally followed a
|
|
maximum amount of time that may pass before the session key is
|
|
renegotiated. The first argument is specified in bytes and may
|
|
have a suffix of M-bM-^@M-^XKM-bM-^@M-^Y, M-bM-^@M-^XMM-bM-^@M-^Y, or M-bM-^@M-^XGM-bM-^@M-^Y to indicate Kilobytes,
|
|
Megabytes, or Gigabytes, respectively. The default is between
|
|
M-bM-^@M-^X1GM-bM-^@M-^Y and M-bM-^@M-^X4GM-bM-^@M-^Y, depending on the cipher. The optional second
|
|
value is specified in seconds and may use any of the units
|
|
documented in the TIME FORMATS section of sshd_config(5). The
|
|
default value for RekeyLimit is default none, which means that
|
|
rekeying is performed after the cipher's default amount of data
|
|
has been sent or received and no time based rekeying is done.
|
|
|
|
RemoteCommand
|
|
Specifies a command to execute on the remote machine after
|
|
successfully connecting to the server. The command string
|
|
extends to the end of the line, and is executed with the user's
|
|
shell. Arguments to RemoteCommand accept the tokens described in
|
|
the TOKENS section.
|
|
|
|
RemoteForward
|
|
Specifies that a TCP port on the remote machine be forwarded over
|
|
the secure channel. The remote port may either be fowarded to a
|
|
specified host and port from the local machine, or may act as a
|
|
SOCKS 4/5 proxy that allows a remote client to connect to
|
|
arbitrary destinations from the local machine. The first
|
|
argument must be [bind_address:]port If forwarding to a specific
|
|
destination then the second argument must be host:hostport,
|
|
otherwise if no destination argument is specified then the remote
|
|
forwarding will be established as a SOCKS proxy.
|
|
|
|
IPv6 addresses can be specified by enclosing addresses in square
|
|
brackets. Multiple forwardings may be specified, and additional
|
|
forwardings can be given on the command line. Privileged ports
|
|
can be forwarded only when logging in as root on the remote
|
|
machine.
|
|
|
|
If the port argument is 0, the listen port will be dynamically
|
|
allocated on the server and reported to the client at run time.
|
|
|
|
If the bind_address is not specified, the default is to only bind
|
|
to loopback addresses. If the bind_address is M-bM-^@M-^X*M-bM-^@M-^Y or an empty
|
|
string, then the forwarding is requested to listen on all
|
|
interfaces. Specifying a remote bind_address will only succeed
|
|
if the server's GatewayPorts option is enabled (see
|
|
sshd_config(5)).
|
|
|
|
RequestTTY
|
|
Specifies whether to request a pseudo-tty for the session. The
|
|
argument may be one of: no (never request a TTY), yes (always
|
|
request a TTY when standard input is a TTY), force (always
|
|
request a TTY) or auto (request a TTY when opening a login
|
|
session). This option mirrors the -t and -T flags for ssh(1).
|
|
|
|
RevokedHostKeys
|
|
Specifies revoked host public keys. Keys listed in this file
|
|
will be refused for host authentication. Note that if this file
|
|
does not exist or is not readable, then host authentication will
|
|
be refused for all hosts. Keys may be specified as a text file,
|
|
listing one public key per line, or as an OpenSSH Key Revocation
|
|
List (KRL) as generated by ssh-keygen(1). For more information
|
|
on KRLs, see the KEY REVOCATION LISTS section in ssh-keygen(1).
|
|
|
|
SendEnv
|
|
Specifies what variables from the local environ(7) should be sent
|
|
to the server. The server must also support it, and the server
|
|
must be configured to accept these environment variables. Note
|
|
that the TERM environment variable is always sent whenever a
|
|
pseudo-terminal is requested as it is required by the protocol.
|
|
Refer to AcceptEnv in sshd_config(5) for how to configure the
|
|
server. Variables are specified by name, which may contain
|
|
wildcard characters. Multiple environment variables may be
|
|
separated by whitespace or spread across multiple SendEnv
|
|
directives. The default is not to send any environment
|
|
variables.
|
|
|
|
See PATTERNS for more information on patterns.
|
|
|
|
ServerAliveCountMax
|
|
Sets the number of server alive messages (see below) which may be
|
|
sent without ssh(1) receiving any messages back from the server.
|
|
If this threshold is reached while server alive messages are
|
|
being sent, ssh will disconnect from the server, terminating the
|
|
session. It is important to note that the use of server alive
|
|
messages is very different from TCPKeepAlive (below). The server
|
|
alive messages are sent through the encrypted channel and
|
|
therefore will not be spoofable. The TCP keepalive option
|
|
enabled by TCPKeepAlive is spoofable. The server alive mechanism
|
|
is valuable when the client or server depend on knowing when a
|
|
connection has become inactive.
|
|
|
|
The default value is 3. If, for example, ServerAliveInterval
|
|
(see below) is set to 15 and ServerAliveCountMax is left at the
|
|
default, if the server becomes unresponsive, ssh will disconnect
|
|
after approximately 45 seconds.
|
|
|
|
ServerAliveInterval
|
|
Sets a timeout interval in seconds after which if no data has
|
|
been received from the server, ssh(1) will send a message through
|
|
the encrypted channel to request a response from the server. The
|
|
default is 0, indicating that these messages will not be sent to
|
|
the server.
|
|
|
|
StreamLocalBindMask
|
|
Sets the octal file creation mode mask (umask) used when creating
|
|
a Unix-domain socket file for local or remote port forwarding.
|
|
This option is only used for port forwarding to a Unix-domain
|
|
socket file.
|
|
|
|
The default value is 0177, which creates a Unix-domain socket
|
|
file that is readable and writable only by the owner. Note that
|
|
not all operating systems honor the file mode on Unix-domain
|
|
socket files.
|
|
|
|
StreamLocalBindUnlink
|
|
Specifies whether to remove an existing Unix-domain socket file
|
|
for local or remote port forwarding before creating a new one.
|
|
If the socket file already exists and StreamLocalBindUnlink is
|
|
not enabled, ssh will be unable to forward the port to the Unix-
|
|
domain socket file. This option is only used for port forwarding
|
|
to a Unix-domain socket file.
|
|
|
|
The argument must be yes or no (the default).
|
|
|
|
StrictHostKeyChecking
|
|
If this flag is set to yes, ssh(1) will never automatically add
|
|
host keys to the ~/.ssh/known_hosts file, and refuses to connect
|
|
to hosts whose host key has changed. This provides maximum
|
|
protection against trojan horse attacks, though it can be
|
|
annoying when the /etc/ssh/ssh_known_hosts file is poorly
|
|
maintained or when connections to new hosts are frequently made.
|
|
This option forces the user to manually add all new hosts.
|
|
|
|
If this flag is set to M-bM-^@M-^\accept-newM-bM-^@M-^] then ssh will automatically
|
|
add new host keys to the user known hosts files, but will not
|
|
permit connections to hosts with changed host keys. If this flag
|
|
is set to M-bM-^@M-^\noM-bM-^@M-^] or M-bM-^@M-^\offM-bM-^@M-^], ssh will automatically add new host keys
|
|
to the user known hosts files and allow connections to hosts with
|
|
changed hostkeys to proceed, subject to some restrictions. If
|
|
this flag is set to ask (the default), 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 ssh will
|
|
refuse to connect to hosts whose host key has changed. The host
|
|
keys of known hosts will be verified automatically in all cases.
|
|
|
|
SyslogFacility
|
|
Gives the facility code that is used when logging messages from
|
|
ssh(1). The possible values are: DAEMON, USER, AUTH, LOCAL0,
|
|
LOCAL1, LOCAL2, LOCAL3, LOCAL4, LOCAL5, LOCAL6, LOCAL7. The
|
|
default is USER.
|
|
|
|
TCPKeepAlive
|
|
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.
|
|
|
|
The default is yes (to send TCP keepalive messages), 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.
|
|
|
|
To disable TCP keepalive messages, the value should be set to no.
|
|
|
|
Tunnel Request tun(4) device forwarding between the client and the
|
|
server. The argument must be yes, point-to-point (layer 3),
|
|
ethernet (layer 2), or no (the default). Specifying yes requests
|
|
the default tunnel mode, which is point-to-point.
|
|
|
|
TunnelDevice
|
|
Specifies the tun(4) devices to open on the client (local_tun)
|
|
and the server (remote_tun).
|
|
|
|
The argument must be local_tun[:remote_tun]. The devices may be
|
|
specified by numerical ID or the keyword any, which uses the next
|
|
available tunnel device. If remote_tun is not specified, it
|
|
defaults to any. The default is any:any.
|
|
|
|
UpdateHostKeys
|
|
Specifies whether ssh(1) should accept notifications of
|
|
additional hostkeys from the server sent after authentication has
|
|
completed and add them to UserKnownHostsFile. The argument must
|
|
be yes, no (the default) or ask. Enabling this option allows
|
|
learning alternate hostkeys for a server and supports graceful
|
|
key rotation by allowing a server to send replacement public keys
|
|
before old ones are removed. Additional hostkeys are only
|
|
accepted if the key used to authenticate the host was already
|
|
trusted or explicitly accepted by the user. If UpdateHostKeys is
|
|
set to ask, then the user is asked to confirm the modifications
|
|
to the known_hosts file. Confirmation is currently incompatible
|
|
with ControlPersist, and will be disabled if it is enabled.
|
|
|
|
Presently, only sshd(8) from OpenSSH 6.8 and greater support the
|
|
"hostkeys@openssh.com" protocol extension used to inform the
|
|
client of all the server's hostkeys.
|
|
|
|
UsePrivilegedPort
|
|
Specifies whether to use a privileged port for outgoing
|
|
connections. The argument must be yes or no (the default). If
|
|
set to yes, ssh(1) must be setuid root.
|
|
|
|
User Specifies the user to log in as. This can be useful when a
|
|
different user name is used on different machines. This saves
|
|
the trouble of having to remember to give the user name on the
|
|
command line.
|
|
|
|
UserKnownHostsFile
|
|
Specifies one or more files to use for the user host key
|
|
database, separated by whitespace. The default is
|
|
~/.ssh/known_hosts, ~/.ssh/known_hosts2.
|
|
|
|
VerifyHostKeyDNS
|
|
Specifies whether to verify the remote key using DNS and SSHFP
|
|
resource records. If this option is set to yes, the client will
|
|
implicitly trust keys that match a secure fingerprint from DNS.
|
|
Insecure fingerprints will be handled as if this option was set
|
|
to ask. If this option is set to ask, information on fingerprint
|
|
match will be displayed, but the user will still need to confirm
|
|
new host keys according to the StrictHostKeyChecking option. The
|
|
default is no.
|
|
|
|
See also VERIFYING HOST KEYS in ssh(1).
|
|
|
|
VisualHostKey
|
|
If this flag is set to yes, an ASCII art representation of the
|
|
remote host key fingerprint is printed in addition to the
|
|
fingerprint string at login and for unknown host keys. If this
|
|
flag is set to no (the default), no fingerprint strings are
|
|
printed at login and only the fingerprint string will be printed
|
|
for unknown host keys.
|
|
|
|
XAuthLocation
|
|
Specifies the full pathname of the xauth(1) program. The default
|
|
is /usr/X11R6/bin/xauth.
|
|
|
|
PATTERNS
|
|
A pattern consists of zero or more non-whitespace characters, M-bM-^@M-^X*M-bM-^@M-^Y (a
|
|
wildcard that matches zero or more characters), or M-bM-^@M-^X?M-bM-^@M-^Y (a wildcard that
|
|
matches exactly one character). For example, to specify a set of
|
|
declarations for any host in the ".co.uk" set of domains, the following
|
|
pattern could be used:
|
|
|
|
Host *.co.uk
|
|
|
|
The following pattern would match any host in the 192.168.0.[0-9] network
|
|
range:
|
|
|
|
Host 192.168.0.?
|
|
|
|
A pattern-list is a comma-separated list of patterns. Patterns within
|
|
pattern-lists may be negated by preceding them with an exclamation mark
|
|
(M-bM-^@M-^X!M-bM-^@M-^Y). For example, to allow a key to be used from anywhere within an
|
|
organization except from the "dialup" pool, the following entry (in
|
|
authorized_keys) could be used:
|
|
|
|
from="!*.dialup.example.com,*.example.com"
|
|
|
|
TOKENS
|
|
Arguments to some keywords can make use of tokens, which are expanded at
|
|
runtime:
|
|
|
|
%% A literal M-bM-^@M-^X%M-bM-^@M-^Y.
|
|
%C Shorthand for %l%h%p%r.
|
|
%d Local user's home directory.

|
|
%p The remote port.
|
|
%r The remote username.
|
|
%u The local username.
|
|

FILES
|
|
~/.ssh/config
|
|
This is the per-user configuration file. The format of this file
|
|
is described above. This file is used by the SSH client.
|
|
Because of the potential for abuse, this file must have strict
|
|
permissions: read/write for the user, and not accessible by
|
|
others.
|
|
|
|
/etc/ssh/ssh_config
|
|
Systemwide configuration file. This file provides defaults for
|
|
those values that are not specified in the user's configuration
|
|
file, and for those users who do not have a configuration file.
|
|
This file must be world-readable.
