.Sh NAME
|
|
.Nm ssh_config
|
|
.Nd OpenSSH SSH client configuration files
|
|
.Sh SYNOPSIS
|
|
.Bl -tag -width Ds -compact
|
|
.It Pa $HOME/.ssh/config
|
|
.It Pa /etc/ssh/ssh_config
|
|
.El
|
|
.Sh DESCRIPTION
|
|
.Nm ssh
|
|
obtains configuration data from the following sources in
|
|
the following order:
|
|
.Bl -enum -offset indent -compact
|
|
.It
|
|
command-line options
|
|
.It
|
|
user's configuration file
|
|
.Pq Pa $HOME/.ssh/config
|
|
.It
|
|
system-wide configuration file
|
|
.Pq Pa /etc/ssh/ssh_config
|
|
.El
|
|
.Pp
|
|
For each parameter, the first obtained value
|
|
will be used.
|
|
The configuration files contain sections bracketed by
|
|
.Dq 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 the one given on the command line.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
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.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The configuration file has the following format:
|
|
.Pp
|
|
Empty lines and lines starting with
|
|
.Ql #
|
|
are comments.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
Otherwise a line is of the format
|
|
.Dq keyword arguments .
|
|
Configuration options may be separated by whitespace or
|
|
optional whitespace and exactly one
|
|
.Ql = ;
|
|
the latter format is useful to avoid the need to quote whitespace
|
|
when specifying configuration options using the
|
|
.Nm ssh ,
|
|
.Nm scp
|
|
and
|
|
.Nm sftp
|
|
.Fl o
|
|
option.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The possible
|
|
keywords and their meanings are as follows (note that
|
|
keywords are case-insensitive and arguments are case-sensitive):
|
|
.Bl -tag -width Ds
|
|
.It Cm Host
|
|
Restricts the following declarations (up to the next
|
|
.Cm Host
|
|
keyword) to be only for those hosts that match one of the patterns
|
|
given after the keyword.
|
|
.Ql \&*
|
|
and
|
|
.Ql ?
|
|
can be used as wildcards in the
|
|
patterns.
|
|
A single
|
|
.Ql \&*
|
|
as a pattern can be used to provide global
|
|
defaults for all hosts.
|
|
The host is the
|
|
.Ar hostname
|
|
argument given on the command line (i.e., the name is not converted to
|
|
a canonicalized host name before matching).
|
|
.It Cm AFSTokenPassing
|
|
Specifies whether to pass AFS tokens to remote host.
|
|
The argument to this keyword must be
|
|
.Dq yes
|
|
or
|
|
.Dq no .
|
|
This option applies to protocol version 1 only.
|
|
.It Cm BatchMode
|
|
If set to
|
|
.Dq 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
|
|
.Dq yes
|
|
or
|
|
.Dq no .
|
|
The default is
|
|
.Dq no .
|
|
.It Cm BindAddress
|
|
Specify the interface to transmit from on machines with multiple
|
|
interfaces or aliased addresses.
|
|
Note that this option does not work if
|
|
.Cm UsePrivilegedPort
|
|
is set to
|
|
.Dq yes .
|
|
.It Cm ChallengeResponseAuthentication
|
|
Specifies whether to use challenge response authentication.
|
|
The argument to this keyword must be
|
|
.Dq yes
|
|
or
|
|
.Dq no .
|
|
The default is
|
|
.Dq yes .
|
|
.It Cm CheckHostIP
|
|
If this flag is set to
|
|
.Dq yes ,
|
|
ssh will additionally check the host IP address in the
|
|
.Pa known_hosts
|
|
file.
|
|
This allows ssh to detect if a host key changed due to DNS spoofing.
|
|
If the option is set to
|
|
.Dq no ,
|
|
the check will not be executed.
|
|
The default is
|
|
.Dq no .
|
|
.It Cm Cipher
|
|
Specifies the cipher to use for encrypting the session
|
|
in protocol version 1.
|
|
Currently,
|
|
.Dq blowfish ,
|
|
.Dq 3des ,
|
|
and
|
|
.Dq des
|
|
are supported.
|
|
.Ar des
|
|
is only supported in the
|
|
.Nm ssh
|
|
client for interoperability with legacy protocol 1 implementations
|
|
that do not support the
|
|
.Ar 3des
|
|
cipher. Its use is strongly discouraged due to cryptographic
|
|
weaknesses.
|
|
The default is
|
|
.Dq 3des .
|
|
.It Cm Ciphers
|
|
Specifies the ciphers allowed for protocol version 2
|
|
in order of preference.
|
|
Multiple ciphers must be comma-separated.
|
|
The default is
|
|
.Pp
|
|
.Bd -literal
|
|
``aes128-cbc,3des-cbc,blowfish-cbc,cast128-cbc,arcfour,
|
|
aes192-cbc,aes256-cbc''
|
|
.Ed
|
|
.It Cm 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
|
|
.Nm ssh
|
|
command line to clear port forwardings set in
|
|
configuration files, and is automatically set by
|
|
.Xr scp 1
|
|
and
|
|
.Xr sftp 1 .
|
|
The argument must be
|
|
.Dq yes
|
|
or
|
|
.Dq no .
|
|
The default is
|
|
.Dq no .
|
|
.It Cm Compression
|
|
Specifies whether to use compression.
|
|
The argument must be
|
|
.Dq yes
|
|
or
|
|
.Dq no .
|
|
The default is
|
|
.Dq no .
|
|
.It Cm CompressionLevel
|
|
Specifies the compression level to use if compression is enabled.
|
|
The argument must be an integer from 1 (fast) to 9 (slow, best).
|
|
The default level is 6, which is good for most applications.
|
|
The meaning of the values is the same as in
|
|
.Xr gzip 1 .
|
|
Note that this option applies to protocol version 1 only.
|
|
.It Cm 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.
|
|
.It Cm DynamicForward
|
|
Specifies that a TCP/IP 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 a port number.
|
|
Currently the SOCKS4 protocol is supported, and
|
|
.Nm ssh
|
|
will act as a SOCKS4 server.
|
|
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
|
|
Sets the escape character (default:
|
|
.Ql ~ ) .
|
|
The escape character can also
|
|
be set on the command line.
|
|
The argument should be a single character,
|
|
.Ql ^
|
|
followed by a letter, or
|
|
.Dq none
|
|
to disable the escape
|
|
character entirely (making the connection transparent for binary
|
|
data).
|
|
.It Cm ForwardAgent
|
|
Specifies whether the connection to the authentication agent (if any)
|
|
will be forwarded to the remote machine.
|
|
The argument must be
|
|
.Dq yes
|
|
or
|
|
.Dq no .
|
|
The default is
|
|
.Dq no .
|
|
.Pp
|
|
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.
|
|
.It Cm ForwardX11
|
|
Specifies whether X11 connections will be automatically redirected
|
|
over the secure channel and
|
|
.Ev DISPLAY
|
|
set.
|
|
The argument must be
|
|
.Dq yes
|
|
or
|
|
.Dq no .
|
|
The default is
|
|
.Dq no .
|
|
.Pp
|
|
X11 forwarding should be enabled with caution. Users with the ability
|
|
to bypass file permissions on the remote host (for the user's X
|
|
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.
|
|
.It Cm GatewayPorts
|
|
Specifies whether remote hosts are allowed to connect to local
|
|
forwarded ports.
|
|
By default,
|
|
.Nm ssh
|
|
binds local port forwardings to the loopback address. This
|
|
prevents other remote hosts from connecting to forwarded ports.
|
|
.Cm GatewayPorts
|
|
can be used to specify that
|
|
.Nm ssh
|
|
should bind local port forwardings to the wildcard address,
|
|
thus allowing remote hosts to connect to forwarded ports.
|
|
The argument must be
|
|
.Dq yes
|
|
or
|
|
.Dq no .
|
|
The default is
|
|
.Dq no .
|
|
.It Cm GlobalKnownHostsFile
|
|
Specifies a file to use for the global
|
|
host key database instead of
|
|
.Pa /etc/ssh/ssh_known_hosts .
|
|
.It Cm HostbasedAuthentication
|
|
Specifies whether to try rhosts based authentication with public key
|
|
authentication.
|
|
The argument must be
|
|
.Dq yes
|
|
or
|
|
.Dq no .
|
|
The default is
|
|
.Dq no .
|
|
This option applies to protocol version 2 only and
|
|
is similar to
|
|
.Cm RhostsRSAAuthentication .
|
|
.It Cm HostKeyAlgorithms
|
|
Specifies the protocol version 2 host key algorithms
|
|
that the client wants to use in order of preference.
|
|
The default for this option is:
|
|
.Dq ssh-rsa,ssh-dss .
|
|
.It Cm 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.
|
|
This option is useful for tunneling ssh connections
|
|
or for multiple servers running on a single host.
|
|
.It Cm HostName
|
|
Specifies the real host name to log into.
|
|
This can be used to specify nicknames or abbreviations for hosts.
|
|
Default is the name given on the command line.
|
|
Numeric IP addresses are also permitted (both on the command line and in
|
|
.Cm HostName
|
|
specifications).
|
|
.It Cm IdentityFile
|
|
Specifies a file from which the user's RSA or DSA authentication identity
|
|
is read. The default is
|
|
.Pa $HOME/.ssh/identity
|
|
for protocol version 1, and
|
|
.Pa $HOME/.ssh/id_rsa
|
|
and
|
|
.Pa $HOME/.ssh/id_dsa
|
|
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 .
|
|
.It Cm KerberosAuthentication
|
|
Specifies whether Kerberos authentication will be used.
|
|
The argument to this keyword must be
|
|
.Dq yes
|
|
or
|
|
.Dq no .
|
|
.It Cm KerberosTgtPassing
|
|
Specifies whether a Kerberos TGT will be forwarded to the server.
|
|
This will only work if the Kerberos server is actually an AFS kaserver.
|
|
The argument to this keyword must be
|
|
.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.
|
|
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.
|
|
Only the superuser can forward privileged ports.
|
|
.It Cm LogLevel
|
|
Gives the verbosity level that is used when logging messages from
|
|
.Nm ssh .
|
|
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.
|
|
.It Cm MACs
|
|
Specifies the MAC (message authentication code) algorithms
|
|
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
|
|
.Dq hmac-md5,hmac-sha1,hmac-ripemd160,hmac-sha1-96,hmac-md5-96 .
|
|
.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.
|
|
The argument to this keyword must be an integer.
|
|
Default is 3.
|
|
.It Cm PasswordAuthentication
|
|
Specifies whether to use password authentication.
|
|
The argument to this keyword must be
|
|
.Dq yes
|
|
or
|
|
.Dq no .
|
|
The default is
|
|
.Dq yes .
|
|
.It Cm Port
|
|
Specifies the port number to connect on the remote host.
|
|
Default is 22.
|
|
.It Cm PreferredAuthentications
|
|
Specifies the order in which the client should try protocol 2
|
|
authentication methods. This allows a client to prefer one method (e.g.
|
|
.Cm keyboard-interactive )
|
|
over another method (e.g.
|
|
.Cm password )
|
|
The default for this option is:
|
|
.Dq hostbased,publickey,keyboard-interactive,password .
|
|
.It Cm Protocol
|
|
Specifies the protocol versions
|
|
.Nm ssh
|
|
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 ssh
|
|
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 .
|
|
This option applies to protocol version 2 only.
|
|
.It Cm RemoteForward
|
|
Specifies that a TCP/IP port on the remote machine be forwarded over
|
|
the secure channel to the specified host and port from the local machine.
|
|
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.
|
|
Only the superuser can forward privileged ports.
|
|
.It Cm RhostsAuthentication
|
|
Specifies whether to try rhosts based authentication.
|
|
Note that this
|
|
declaration only affects the client side and has no effect whatsoever
|
|
on security.
|
|
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 no .
|
|
This option applies to protocol version 1 only and requires
|
|
.Nm ssh
|
|
to be setuid root and
|
|
.Cm UsePrivilegedPort
|
|
to be set to
|
|
.Dq yes .
|
|
.It Cm RhostsRSAAuthentication
|
|
Specifies whether to try rhosts based authentication with RSA host
|
|
authentication.
|
|
The argument must be
|
|
.Dq yes
|
|
or
|
|
.Dq no .
|
|
The default is
|
|
.Dq no .
|
|
This option applies to protocol version 1 only and requires
|
|
.Nm ssh
|
|
to be setuid root.
|
|
.It Cm RSAAuthentication
|
|
Specifies whether to try RSA authentication.
|
|
The argument to this keyword must be
|
|
.Dq yes
|
|
or
|
|
.Dq no .
|
|
RSA authentication will only be
|
|
attempted if the identity file exists, or an authentication agent is
|
|
running.
|
|
The default is
|
|
.Dq yes .
|
|
Note that this option applies to protocol version 1 only.
|
|
.It Cm SmartcardDevice
|
|
Specifies which smartcard device to use. The argument to this keyword is
|
|
the device
|
|
.Nm ssh
|
|
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 ssh
|
|
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 ssh
|
|
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 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.
|
|
The argument must be
|
|
.Dq yes ,
|
|
.Dq no
|
|
or
|
|
.Dq ask .
|
|
The default is
|
|
.Dq ask .
|
|
.It Cm UsePrivilegedPort
|
|
Specifies whether to use a privileged port for outgoing connections.
|
|
The argument must be
|
|
.Dq yes
|
|
or
|
|
.Dq no .
|
|
The default is
|
|
.Dq no .
|
|
If set to
|
|
.Dq yes
|
|
.Nm ssh
|
|
must be setuid root.
|
|
Note that this option must be set to
|
|
.Dq yes
|
|
if
|
|
.Cm RhostsAuthentication
|
|
and
|
|
.Cm RhostsRSAAuthentication
|
|
authentications are needed with older servers.
|
|
.It Cm 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.
|
|
.It Cm UserKnownHostsFile
|
|
Specifies a file to use for the user
|
|
host key database instead of
|
|
.Pa $HOME/.ssh/known_hosts .
|
|
.It Cm VersionAddendum
|
|
Specifies a string to append to the regular version string to identify
|
|
OS- or site-specific modifications.
|
|
The default is
|
|
.Dq FreeBSD-20021029 .
|
|
.It Cm XAuthLocation
|
|
Specifies the full pathname of the
|
|
.Xr xauth 1
|
|
program.
|
|
The default is
|
|
.Pa /usr/X11R6/bin/xauth .

.It Pa $HOME/.ssh/config
|
|
This is the per-user configuration file.
|
|
The format of this file is described above.
|
|
This file is used by the
|
|
.Nm ssh
|
|
client.
|
|
This file does not usually contain any sensitive information,
|
|
but the recommended permissions are read/write for the user, and not
|
|
accessible by others.
|
|
.It Pa /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.
