-SSH_CONFIG(5) File Formats Manual SSH_CONFIG(5)
-
-NAME
- ssh_config M-bM-^@M-^S OpenSSH SSH client configuration files
-
-SYNOPSIS
- ~/.ssh/config
- /etc/ssh/ssh_config
-
-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 M-bM-^@M-^\HostM-bM-^@M-^] 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 configuration file has the following format:
-
- Empty lines and lines starting with M-bM-^@M-^X#M-bM-^@M-^Y are comments. Otherwise a line
- is of the format M-bM-^@M-^\keyword argumentsM-bM-^@M-^]. 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.
- Arguments may optionally be enclosed in double quotes (") in order to
- represent arguments containing spaces.
-
- 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 option 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 critera 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. The following character sequences in the command will
- be expanded prior to execution: M-bM-^@M-^X%LM-bM-^@M-^Y will be substituted by the
- first component of the local host name, M-bM-^@M-^X%lM-bM-^@M-^Y will be substituted
- by the local host name (including any domain name), M-bM-^@M-^X%hM-bM-^@M-^Y will be
- substituted by the target host name, M-bM-^@M-^X%nM-bM-^@M-^Y will be substituted by
- the original target host name specified on the command-line, M-bM-^@M-^X%pM-bM-^@M-^Y
- the destination port, M-bM-^@M-^X%rM-bM-^@M-^Y by the remote login username, and M-bM-^@M-^X%uM-bM-^@M-^Y
- by the username of the user running ssh(1).
-
- 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).
-
- AddressFamily
- Specifies which address family to use when connecting. Valid
- arguments are M-bM-^@M-^\anyM-bM-^@M-^], M-bM-^@M-^\inetM-bM-^@M-^] (use IPv4 only), or M-bM-^@M-^\inet6M-bM-^@M-^] (use IPv6
- only).
-
- BatchMode
- If set to M-bM-^@M-^\yesM-bM-^@M-^], 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
- M-bM-^@M-^\yesM-bM-^@M-^] or M-bM-^@M-^\noM-bM-^@M-^]. The default is M-bM-^@M-^\noM-bM-^@M-^].
-
- 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 M-bM-^@M-^\yesM-bM-^@M-^].
-
- 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, M-bM-^@M-^\yesM-bM-^@M-^], will attempt to look
- up the unqualified hostname using the system resolver's search
- rules. A value of M-bM-^@M-^\noM-bM-^@M-^] 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, M-bM-^@M-^\noM-bM-^@M-^], is not to perform any name rewriting and let
- the system resolver handle all hostname lookups. If set to M-bM-^@M-^\yesM-bM-^@M-^]
- 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 M-bM-^@M-^\alwaysM-bM-^@M-^], 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, M-bM-^@M-^\1M-bM-^@M-^], 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, M-bM-^@M-^\*.a.example.com:*.b.example.com,*.c.example.comM-bM-^@M-^]
- will allow hostnames matching M-bM-^@M-^\*.a.example.comM-bM-^@M-^] to be
- canonicalized to names in the M-bM-^@M-^\*.b.example.comM-bM-^@M-^] or
- M-bM-^@M-^\*.c.example.comM-bM-^@M-^] domains.
-
- ChallengeResponseAuthentication
- Specifies whether to use challenge-response authentication. The
- argument to this keyword must be M-bM-^@M-^\yesM-bM-^@M-^] or M-bM-^@M-^\noM-bM-^@M-^]. The default is
- M-bM-^@M-^\yesM-bM-^@M-^].
-
- CheckHostIP
- If this flag is set to M-bM-^@M-^\yesM-bM-^@M-^], ssh(1) will additionally check the
- host IP address in the known_hosts file. This allows ssh 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 M-bM-^@M-^\noM-bM-^@M-^], the check will not be executed. The
- default is M-bM-^@M-^\yesM-bM-^@M-^].
-
- Cipher Specifies the cipher to use for encrypting the session in
- protocol version 1. Currently, M-bM-^@M-^\blowfishM-bM-^@M-^], M-bM-^@M-^\3desM-bM-^@M-^], and M-bM-^@M-^\desM-bM-^@M-^] are
- supported. des is only supported in the ssh(1) client for
- interoperability with legacy protocol 1 implementations that do
- not support the 3des cipher. Its use is strongly discouraged due
- to cryptographic weaknesses. The default is M-bM-^@M-^\3desM-bM-^@M-^].
-
- Ciphers
- Specifies the ciphers allowed for protocol version 2 in 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.
-
- 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
- arcfour
- arcfour128
- arcfour256
- blowfish-cbc
- cast128-cbc
- chacha20-poly1305@openssh.com
-
- The default is:
-
- aes128-ctr,aes192-ctr,aes256-ctr,
- aes128-gcm@openssh.com,aes256-gcm@openssh.com,
- chacha20-poly1305@openssh.com,
- arcfour256,arcfour128,
- aes128-cbc,3des-cbc,blowfish-cbc,cast128-cbc,
- aes192-cbc,aes256-cbc,arcfour
-
- The list of available ciphers may also be obtained using the -Q
- option of ssh(1) with an argument of M-bM-^@M-^\cipherM-bM-^@M-^].
-
- 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 M-bM-^@M-^\yesM-bM-^@M-^] or M-bM-^@M-^\noM-bM-^@M-^]. The default is
- M-bM-^@M-^\noM-bM-^@M-^].
-
- Compression
- Specifies whether to use compression. The argument must be M-bM-^@M-^\yesM-bM-^@M-^]
- or M-bM-^@M-^\noM-bM-^@M-^]. The default is M-bM-^@M-^\noM-bM-^@M-^].
-
- 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 gzip(1). Note that this
- option applies to protocol version 1 only.
-
- 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 M-bM-^@M-^\yesM-bM-^@M-^], 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 M-bM-^@M-^\noM-bM-^@M-^] (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 M-bM-^@M-^\askM-bM-^@M-^] will cause ssh to listen for control
- connections, but require confirmation using ssh-askpass(1). If
- the ControlPath cannot be opened, ssh 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: M-bM-^@M-^\autoM-bM-^@M-^] and
- M-bM-^@M-^\autoaskM-bM-^@M-^]. The latter requires confirmation like the M-bM-^@M-^\askM-bM-^@M-^]
- option.
-
- ControlPath
- Specify the path to the control socket used for connection
- sharing as described in the ControlMaster section above or the
- string M-bM-^@M-^\noneM-bM-^@M-^] to disable connection sharing. In the path, M-bM-^@M-^X%LM-bM-^@M-^Y
- will be substituted by the first component of the local host
- name, M-bM-^@M-^X%lM-bM-^@M-^Y will be substituted by the local host name (including
- any domain name), M-bM-^@M-^X%hM-bM-^@M-^Y will be substituted by the target host
- name, M-bM-^@M-^X%nM-bM-^@M-^Y will be substituted by the original target host name
- specified on the command line, M-bM-^@M-^X%pM-bM-^@M-^Y the destination port, M-bM-^@M-^X%rM-bM-^@M-^Y by
- the remote login username, M-bM-^@M-^X%uM-bM-^@M-^Y by the username of the user
- running ssh(1), and M-bM-^@M-^X%CM-bM-^@M-^Y by a hash of the concatenation:
- %l%h%p%r. 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 M-bM-^@M-^\noM-bM-^@M-^], 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
- M-bM-^@M-^\yesM-bM-^@M-^] or M-bM-^@M-^\0M-bM-^@M-^], then the master connection will remain in the
- background indefinitely (until killed or closed via a mechanism
- such as the ssh(1) M-bM-^@M-^\-O exitM-bM-^@M-^] option). 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
- M-bM-^@M-^\localhostM-bM-^@M-^] 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 M-bM-^@M-^\yesM-bM-^@M-^] 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 M-bM-^@M-^\yesM-bM-^@M-^] or M-bM-^@M-^\noM-bM-^@M-^]. The default is M-bM-^@M-^\noM-bM-^@M-^]. 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 M-bM-^@M-^\noneM-bM-^@M-^] 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. The argument must be M-bM-^@M-^\yesM-bM-^@M-^] or M-bM-^@M-^\noM-bM-^@M-^]. The
- default is M-bM-^@M-^\noM-bM-^@M-^].
-
- FingerprintHash
- Specifies the hash algorithm used when displaying key
- fingerprints. Valid options are: M-bM-^@M-^\md5M-bM-^@M-^] and M-bM-^@M-^\sha256M-bM-^@M-^]. The
- default is M-bM-^@M-^\sha256M-bM-^@M-^].
-
- ForwardAgent
- Specifies whether the connection to the authentication agent (if
- any) will be forwarded to the remote machine. The argument must
- be M-bM-^@M-^\yesM-bM-^@M-^] or M-bM-^@M-^\noM-bM-^@M-^]. The default is M-bM-^@M-^\noM-bM-^@M-^].
-
- 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 M-bM-^@M-^\yesM-bM-^@M-^] or M-bM-^@M-^\noM-bM-^@M-^]. The default is M-bM-^@M-^\noM-bM-^@M-^].
-
- 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 M-bM-^@M-^\yesM-bM-^@M-^], remote X11 clients will have full
- access to the original X11 display.
-
- If this option is set to M-bM-^@M-^\noM-bM-^@M-^], 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.
-
- The default is M-bM-^@M-^\noM-bM-^@M-^].
-
- 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 M-bM-^@M-^\yesM-bM-^@M-^] or M-bM-^@M-^\noM-bM-^@M-^]. The
- default is M-bM-^@M-^\noM-bM-^@M-^].
-
- 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 M-bM-^@M-^\noM-bM-^@M-^]. Note that this option applies to protocol
- version 2 only.
-
- GSSAPIDelegateCredentials
- Forward (delegate) credentials to the server. The default is
- M-bM-^@M-^\noM-bM-^@M-^]. Note that this option applies to protocol version 2 only.
-
- 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 M-bM-^@M-^\noM-bM-^@M-^]. 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 M-bM-^@M-^\yesM-bM-^@M-^] or M-bM-^@M-^\noM-bM-^@M-^]. The
- default is M-bM-^@M-^\noM-bM-^@M-^]. This option applies to protocol version 2 only
- and is similar to RhostsRSAAuthentication.
-
- 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. 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 protocol version 2 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. 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 the -Q
- option of ssh(1) with an argument of M-bM-^@M-^\keyM-bM-^@M-^].
-
- 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.
-
- HostName
- Specifies the real host name to log into. This can be used to
- specify nicknames or abbreviations for hosts. If the hostname
- contains the character sequence M-bM-^@M-^X%hM-bM-^@M-^Y, then this will be replaced
- with the host name specified on the command line (this is useful
- for manipulating unqualified names). The character sequence M-bM-^@M-^X%%M-bM-^@M-^Y
- will be replaced by a single M-bM-^@M-^X%M-bM-^@M-^Y character, which may be used
- when specifying IPv6 link-local addresses.
-
- The default is the name given on the command line. Numeric IP
- addresses are also permitted (both on the command line and in
- HostName specifications).
-
- IdentitiesOnly
- Specifies that ssh(1) should only use the authentication identity
- files configured in the ssh_config files, even if ssh-agent(1) or
- a PKCS11Provider offers more identities. The argument to this
- keyword must be M-bM-^@M-^\yesM-bM-^@M-^] or M-bM-^@M-^\noM-bM-^@M-^]. This option is intended for
- situations where ssh-agent offers many different identities. The
- default is M-bM-^@M-^\noM-bM-^@M-^].
-
- IdentityFile
- Specifies a file from which the user's DSA, ECDSA, Ed25519 or RSA
- authentication identity is read. The default is ~/.ssh/identity
- for protocol version 1, and ~/.ssh/id_dsa, ~/.ssh/id_ecdsa,
- ~/.ssh/id_ed25519 and ~/.ssh/id_rsa for protocol version 2.
- Additionally, any identities represented by the authentication
- agent will be used for authentication unless IdentitiesOnly is
- set. ssh(1) will try to load certificate information from the
- filename obtained by appending -cert.pub to the path of a
- specified IdentityFile.
-
- The file name may use the tilde syntax to refer to a user's home
- directory or one of the following escape characters: M-bM-^@M-^X%dM-bM-^@M-^Y (local
- user's home directory), M-bM-^@M-^X%uM-bM-^@M-^Y (local user name), M-bM-^@M-^X%lM-bM-^@M-^Y (local host
- name), M-bM-^@M-^X%hM-bM-^@M-^Y (remote host name) or M-bM-^@M-^X%rM-bM-^@M-^Y (remote user name).
-
- 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.
-
- 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.
-
- IPQoS Specifies the IPv4 type-of-service or DSCP class for connections.
- Accepted values are M-bM-^@M-^\af11M-bM-^@M-^], M-bM-^@M-^\af12M-bM-^@M-^], M-bM-^@M-^\af13M-bM-^@M-^], M-bM-^@M-^\af21M-bM-^@M-^], M-bM-^@M-^\af22M-bM-^@M-^],
- M-bM-^@M-^\af23M-bM-^@M-^], M-bM-^@M-^\af31M-bM-^@M-^], M-bM-^@M-^\af32M-bM-^@M-^], M-bM-^@M-^\af33M-bM-^@M-^], M-bM-^@M-^\af41M-bM-^@M-^], M-bM-^@M-^\af42M-bM-^@M-^], M-bM-^@M-^\af43M-bM-^@M-^], M-bM-^@M-^\cs0M-bM-^@M-^],
- M-bM-^@M-^\cs1M-bM-^@M-^], M-bM-^@M-^\cs2M-bM-^@M-^], M-bM-^@M-^\cs3M-bM-^@M-^], M-bM-^@M-^\cs4M-bM-^@M-^], M-bM-^@M-^\cs5M-bM-^@M-^], M-bM-^@M-^\cs6M-bM-^@M-^], M-bM-^@M-^\cs7M-bM-^@M-^], M-bM-^@M-^\efM-bM-^@M-^],
- M-bM-^@M-^\lowdelayM-bM-^@M-^], M-bM-^@M-^\throughputM-bM-^@M-^], M-bM-^@M-^\reliabilityM-bM-^@M-^], or a numeric value.
- 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 M-bM-^@M-^\lowdelayM-bM-^@M-^]
- for interactive sessions and M-bM-^@M-^\throughputM-bM-^@M-^] for non-interactive
- sessions.
-
- KbdInteractiveAuthentication
- Specifies whether to use keyboard-interactive authentication.
- The argument to this keyword must be M-bM-^@M-^\yesM-bM-^@M-^] or M-bM-^@M-^\noM-bM-^@M-^]. The default
- is M-bM-^@M-^\yesM-bM-^@M-^].
-
- 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: M-bM-^@M-^\bsdauthM-bM-^@M-^], M-bM-^@M-^\pamM-bM-^@M-^], and
- M-bM-^@M-^\skeyM-bM-^@M-^].
-
- 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.
- The default is:
-
- 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 the -Q option of ssh(1) with an argument of M-bM-^@M-^\kexM-bM-^@M-^].
-
- 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. The following escape character substitutions will be
- performed: M-bM-^@M-^X%dM-bM-^@M-^Y (local user's home directory), M-bM-^@M-^X%hM-bM-^@M-^Y (remote host
- name), M-bM-^@M-^X%lM-bM-^@M-^Y (local host name), M-bM-^@M-^X%nM-bM-^@M-^Y (host name as provided on the
- command line), M-bM-^@M-^X%pM-bM-^@M-^Y (remote port), M-bM-^@M-^X%rM-bM-^@M-^Y (remote user name) or
- M-bM-^@M-^X%uM-bM-^@M-^Y (local user name) or M-bM-^@M-^X%CM-bM-^@M-^Y by a hash of the concatenation:
- %l%h%p%r.
-
- 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 M-bM-^@M-^\localhostM-bM-^@M-^] 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 in protocol
- version 2 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.
-
- The algorithms that contain M-bM-^@M-^\-etmM-bM-^@M-^] 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,
- umac-64@openssh.com,umac-128@openssh.com,
- hmac-sha2-256,hmac-sha2-512,
- hmac-md5-etm@openssh.com,hmac-sha1-etm@openssh.com,
- hmac-ripemd160-etm@openssh.com,
- hmac-sha1-96-etm@openssh.com,hmac-md5-96-etm@openssh.com,
- hmac-md5,hmac-sha1,hmac-ripemd160,
- hmac-sha1-96,hmac-md5-96
-
- The list of available MAC algorithms may also be obtained using
- the -Q option of ssh(1) with an argument of M-bM-^@M-^\macM-bM-^@M-^].
-
- 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 M-bM-^@M-^\yesM-bM-^@M-^] or M-bM-^@M-^\noM-bM-^@M-^]. The default is to check the host key for
- localhost.
-
- 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 M-bM-^@M-^\yesM-bM-^@M-^] or M-bM-^@M-^\noM-bM-^@M-^]. The default is M-bM-^@M-^\yesM-bM-^@M-^].
-
- PermitLocalCommand
- Allow local command execution via the LocalCommand option or
- using the !command escape sequence in ssh(1). The argument must
- be M-bM-^@M-^\yesM-bM-^@M-^] or M-bM-^@M-^\noM-bM-^@M-^]. The default is M-bM-^@M-^\noM-bM-^@M-^].
-
- 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 protocol 2
- 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
-
- Protocol
- Specifies the protocol versions ssh(1) should support in order of
- preference. The possible values are M-bM-^@M-^X1M-bM-^@M-^Y and M-bM-^@M-^X2M-bM-^@M-^Y. Multiple
- versions must be comma-separated. When this option is set to
- M-bM-^@M-^\2,1M-bM-^@M-^] ssh will try version 2 and fall back to version 1 if
- version 2 is not available. The default is M-bM-^@M-^X2M-bM-^@M-^Y.
-
- 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.
-
- In the command string, any occurrence of M-bM-^@M-^X%hM-bM-^@M-^Y will be substituted
- by the host name to connect, M-bM-^@M-^X%pM-bM-^@M-^Y by the port, and M-bM-^@M-^X%rM-bM-^@M-^Y by the
- remote user name. 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 M-bM-^@M-^\noneM-bM-^@M-^] 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
-
- 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 M-bM-^@M-^\noM-bM-^@M-^].
-
- 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. 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.
-
- PubkeyAuthentication
- Specifies whether to try public key authentication. The argument
- to this keyword must be M-bM-^@M-^\yesM-bM-^@M-^] or M-bM-^@M-^\noM-bM-^@M-^]. The default is M-bM-^@M-^\yesM-bM-^@M-^].
- This option applies to protocol version 2 only.
-
- 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 M-bM-^@M-^\default noneM-bM-^@M-^], 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.
- This option applies to protocol version 2 only.
-
- RemoteForward
- Specifies that a TCP 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 [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. Privileged ports can be forwarded
- only when logging in as root on the remote machine.
-
- If the port argument is M-bM-^@M-^X0M-bM-^@M-^Y, 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: M-bM-^@M-^\noM-bM-^@M-^] (never request a TTY), M-bM-^@M-^\yesM-bM-^@M-^] (always
- request a TTY when standard input is a TTY), M-bM-^@M-^\forceM-bM-^@M-^] (always
- request a TTY) or M-bM-^@M-^\autoM-bM-^@M-^] (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).
-
- RhostsRSAAuthentication
- Specifies whether to try rhosts based authentication with RSA
- host authentication. The argument must be M-bM-^@M-^\yesM-bM-^@M-^] or M-bM-^@M-^\noM-bM-^@M-^]. The
- default is M-bM-^@M-^\noM-bM-^@M-^]. This option applies to protocol version 1 only
- and requires ssh(1) to be setuid root.
-
- RSAAuthentication
- Specifies whether to try RSA authentication. The argument to
- this keyword must be M-bM-^@M-^\yesM-bM-^@M-^] or M-bM-^@M-^\noM-bM-^@M-^]. RSA authentication will only
- be attempted if the identity file exists, or an authentication
- agent is running. The default is M-bM-^@M-^\yesM-bM-^@M-^]. Note that this option
- applies to protocol version 1 only.
-
- SendEnv
- Specifies what variables from the local environ(7) should be sent
- to the server. Note that environment passing is only supported
- for protocol 2. 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. This option applies to protocol
- version 2 only.
-
- 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. This option applies to protocol version 2 only.
-
- 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 M-bM-^@M-^\yesM-bM-^@M-^] or M-bM-^@M-^\noM-bM-^@M-^]. The default is M-bM-^@M-^\noM-bM-^@M-^].
-
- StrictHostKeyChecking
- If this flag is set to M-bM-^@M-^\yesM-bM-^@M-^], 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-^\noM-bM-^@M-^], ssh will automatically add new host
- keys to the user known hosts files. If this flag is set to
- M-bM-^@M-^\askM-bM-^@M-^], 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. The argument must be M-bM-^@M-^\yesM-bM-^@M-^], M-bM-^@M-^\noM-bM-^@M-^], or
- M-bM-^@M-^\askM-bM-^@M-^]. The default is M-bM-^@M-^\askM-bM-^@M-^].
-
- 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 M-bM-^@M-^\yesM-bM-^@M-^] (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
- M-bM-^@M-^\noM-bM-^@M-^].
-
- Tunnel Request tun(4) device forwarding between the client and the
- server. The argument must be M-bM-^@M-^\yesM-bM-^@M-^], M-bM-^@M-^\point-to-pointM-bM-^@M-^] (layer 3),
- M-bM-^@M-^\ethernetM-bM-^@M-^] (layer 2), or M-bM-^@M-^\noM-bM-^@M-^]. Specifying M-bM-^@M-^\yesM-bM-^@M-^] requests the
- default tunnel mode, which is M-bM-^@M-^\point-to-pointM-bM-^@M-^]. The default is
- M-bM-^@M-^\noM-bM-^@M-^].
-
- 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 M-bM-^@M-^\anyM-bM-^@M-^], which uses the
- next available tunnel device. If remote_tun is not specified, it
- defaults to M-bM-^@M-^\anyM-bM-^@M-^]. The default is M-bM-^@M-^\any:anyM-bM-^@M-^].
-
- 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 M-bM-^@M-^\yesM-bM-^@M-^], M-bM-^@M-^\noM-bM-^@M-^] (the default) or M-bM-^@M-^\askM-bM-^@M-^]. 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 explicity accepted by the user. If
- UpdateHostKeys is set to M-bM-^@M-^\askM-bM-^@M-^], 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
- M-bM-^@M-^\hostkeys@openssh.comM-bM-^@M-^] 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 M-bM-^@M-^\yesM-bM-^@M-^] or M-bM-^@M-^\noM-bM-^@M-^]. The default is
- M-bM-^@M-^\noM-bM-^@M-^]. If set to M-bM-^@M-^\yesM-bM-^@M-^], ssh(1) must be setuid root. Note that
- this option must be set to M-bM-^@M-^\yesM-bM-^@M-^] for RhostsRSAAuthentication with
- older servers.
-
- 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 M-bM-^@M-^\yesM-bM-^@M-^], 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 M-bM-^@M-^\askM-bM-^@M-^]. If this option is set to M-bM-^@M-^\askM-bM-^@M-^], information on
- fingerprint match will be displayed, but the user will still need
- to confirm new host keys according to the StrictHostKeyChecking
- option. The argument must be M-bM-^@M-^\yesM-bM-^@M-^], M-bM-^@M-^\noM-bM-^@M-^], or M-bM-^@M-^\askM-bM-^@M-^]. The default
- is M-bM-^@M-^\noM-bM-^@M-^]. Note that this option applies to protocol version 2
- only.

-
- VisualHostKey
- If this flag is set to M-bM-^@M-^\yesM-bM-^@M-^], 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 M-bM-^@M-^\noM-bM-^@M-^], no fingerprint strings are printed at login
- and only the fingerprint string will be printed for unknown host
- keys. The default is M-bM-^@M-^\noM-bM-^@M-^].
-
- 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 M-bM-^@M-^\.co.ukM-bM-^@M-^] 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 M-bM-^@M-^\dialupM-bM-^@M-^] pool, the following entry (in
- authorized_keys) could be used:
-
- from="!*.dialup.example.com,*.example.com"

-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.
