-SSH-ADD(1) OpenBSD Reference Manual SSH-ADD(1)
-
-NAME
- ssh-add - adds private key identities to the authentication agent
-
-SYNOPSIS
- ssh-add [-cDdkLlXx] [-t life] [file ...]
- ssh-add -s pkcs11
- ssh-add -e pkcs11
-
-DESCRIPTION
- ssh-add adds private key identities to the authentication agent,
- ssh-agent(1). When run without arguments, it adds the files
- ~/.ssh/id_rsa, ~/.ssh/id_dsa, ~/.ssh/id_ecdsa, ~/.ssh/id_ed25519 and
- ~/.ssh/identity. After loading a private key, ssh-add will try to load
- corresponding certificate information from the filename obtained by
- appending -cert.pub to the name of the private key file. Alternative
- file names can be given on the command line.
-
- If any file requires a passphrase, ssh-add asks for the passphrase from
- the user. The passphrase is read from the user's tty. ssh-add retries
- the last passphrase if multiple identity files are given.
-
- The authentication agent must be running and the SSH_AUTH_SOCK
- environment variable must contain the name of its socket for ssh-add to
- work.
-
- The options are as follows:
-
- -c Indicates that added identities should be subject to confirmation
- before being used for authentication. Confirmation is performed
- by the SSH_ASKPASS program mentioned below. Successful
- confirmation is signaled by a zero exit status from the
- SSH_ASKPASS program, rather than text entered into the requester.
-
- -D Deletes all identities from the agent.
-
- -d Instead of adding identities, removes identities from the agent.
- If ssh-add has been run without arguments, the keys for the
- default identities and their corresponding certificates will be
- removed. Otherwise, the argument list will be interpreted as a
- list of paths to public key files to specify keys and
- certificates to be removed from the agent. If no public key is
- found at a given path, ssh-add will append .pub and retry.
-
- -e pkcs11
- Remove keys provided by the PKCS#11 shared library pkcs11.
-
- -k When loading keys into or deleting keys from the agent, process
- plain private keys only and skip certificates.
-
- -L Lists public key parameters of all identities currently
- represented by the agent.
-
- -l Lists fingerprints of all identities currently represented by the
- agent.
-
- -s pkcs11
- Add keys provided by the PKCS#11 shared library pkcs11.
-
- -t life
- Set a maximum lifetime when adding identities to an agent. The
- lifetime may be specified in seconds or in a time format
- specified in sshd_config(5).
-
- -X Unlock the agent.
-
- -x Lock the agent with a password.
-
-ENVIRONMENT
- DISPLAY and SSH_ASKPASS
- If ssh-add needs a passphrase, it will read the passphrase from
- the current terminal if it was run from a terminal. If ssh-add
- does not have a terminal associated with it but DISPLAY and
- SSH_ASKPASS are set, it will execute the program specified by
- SSH_ASKPASS and open an X11 window to read the passphrase. This
- is particularly useful when calling ssh-add from a .xsession or
- related script. (Note that on some machines it may be necessary
- to redirect the input from /dev/null to make this work.)
-
- SSH_AUTH_SOCK
- Identifies the path of a UNIX-domain socket used to communicate
- with the agent.
-
-FILES
- ~/.ssh/identity
- Contains the protocol version 1 RSA authentication identity of
- the user.
-
- ~/.ssh/id_dsa
- Contains the protocol version 2 DSA authentication identity of
- the user.
-
- ~/.ssh/id_ecdsa
- Contains the protocol version 2 ECDSA authentication identity of
- the user.
-
- ~/.ssh/id_ed25519
- Contains the protocol version 2 ED25519 authentication identity
- of the user.
-
- ~/.ssh/id_rsa
- Contains the protocol version 2 RSA authentication identity of
- the user.
-
- Identity files should not be readable by anyone but the user. Note that
- ssh-add ignores identity files if they are accessible by others.
-
-EXIT STATUS
- Exit status is 0 on success, 1 if the specified command fails, and 2 if
- ssh-add is unable to contact the authentication agent.

-AUTHORS
- OpenSSH is a derivative of the original and free ssh 1.2.12 release by
- Tatu Ylonen. Aaron Campbell, Bob Beck, Markus Friedl, Niels Provos, Theo
- de Raadt and Dug Song removed many bugs, re-added newer features and
- created OpenSSH. Markus Friedl contributed the support for SSH protocol
- versions 1.5 and 2.0.
