[-w local_tun[:remote_tun]] [user@]hostname [command] DESCRIPTION
ssh (SSH client) is a program for logging into a remote machine and for executing commands on a remote machine. It is intended to provide secure encrypted communications between
two untrusted hosts over an insecure network. X11 connections, arbitrary TCP ports and UNIX-domain sockets can also be forwarded over the secure channel. ssh connects and logs into the specified hostname (with optional user name). The user must prove his/her identity to the remote machine using one of several methods (see below). If command is specified, it is executed on the remote host instead of a login shell. The options are as follows: - Forces ssh to try protocol version only. - Forces ssh to try protocol version only. - Forces ssh to use IPv4 addresses only. - Forces ssh to use IPv6 addresses only. -A Enables forwarding of the authentication agent connection. This can also be specified on a per-host basis in a configuration file. 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. -a Disables forwarding of the authentication agent connection. -b bind_address
Use bind_address on the local machine as the source address of the connection. Only useful on systems with more than one address. -C Requests compression of all data (including stdin, stdout, stderr, and data for forwarded X11, TCP and UNIX-domain connections). The compression algorithm is the same
used by gzip(), and the “level” can be controlled by the CompressionLevel option for protocol version . Compression is desirable on modem lines and other slow connec‐
tions, but will only slow down things on fast networks. The default value can be set on a host-by-host basis in the configuration files; see the Compression option. -c cipher_spec
Selects the cipher specification for encrypting the session. Protocol version allows specification of a single cipher. The supported values are “3des”, “blowfish”, and “des”. For protocol version , cipher_spec is a comma-sepa‐
rated list of ciphers listed in order of preference. See the Ciphers keyword in ssh_config() for more information. -D [bind_address:]port
Specifies a local “dynamic” application-level port forwarding. This works by allocating a socket to listen to port on the local side, optionally bound to the specified
bind_address. Whenever a connection is made to this port, the connection is forwarded over the secure channel, and the application protocol is then used to determine
where to connect to from the remote machine. Currently the SOCKS4 and SOCKS5 protocols are supported, and ssh will act as a SOCKS server. Only root can forward privi‐
leged ports. Dynamic port forwardings can also be specified in the configuration file. IPv6 addresses can be specified by enclosing the address in square brackets. 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 ‘*’ indicates that the port should be available from all interfaces. -E log_file
Append debug logs to log_file instead of standard error. -e escape_char
Sets the escape character for sessions with a pty (default: ‘~’). The escape character is only recognized at the beginning of a line. The escape character followed by a
dot (‘.’) closes the connection; followed by control-Z suspends the connection; and followed by itself sends the escape character once. Setting the character to “none”
disables any escapes and makes the session fully transparent. -F configfile
Specifies an alternative per-user configuration file. If a configuration file is given on the command line, the system-wide configuration file (/etc/ssh/ssh_config) will
be ignored. The default for the per-user configuration file is ~/.ssh/config. -f Requests ssh to go to background just before command execution. This is useful if ssh is going to ask for passwords or passphrases, but the user wants it in the back‐
ground. This implies -n. The recommended way to start X11 programs at a remote site is with something like ssh -f host xterm. If the ExitOnForwardFailure configuration option is set to “yes”, then a client started with -f will wait for all remote port forwards to be successfully established
before placing itself in the background. -G Causes ssh to print its configuration after evaluating Host and Match blocks and exit. -g Allows remote hosts to connect to local forwarded ports. If used on a multiplexed connection, then this option must be specified on the master process. -I pkcs11
Specify the PKCS# shared library ssh should use to communicate with a PKCS# token providing the user's private RSA key. -i identity_file
Selects a file from which the identity (private key) for public key authentication is read. The default is ~/.ssh/identity for protocol version , and ~/.ssh/id_dsa,
~/.ssh/id_ecdsa, ~/.ssh/id_ed25519 and ~/.ssh/id_rsa for protocol version . Identity files may also be specified on a per-host basis in the configuration file. It is
possible to have multiple -i options (and multiple identities specified in configuration files). If no certificates have been explicitly specified by the CertificateFile
directive, ssh will also try to load certificate information from the filename obtained by appending -cert.pub to identity filenames. -J [user@]host[:port]
Connect to the target host by first making a ssh connection to the jump host and then establishing a TCP forwarding to the ultimate destination from there. Multiple jump
hops may be specified separated by comma characters. This is a shortcut to specify a ProxyJump configuration directive. -K Enables GSSAPI-based authentication and forwarding (delegation) of GSSAPI credentials to the server. -k Disables forwarding (delegation) of GSSAPI credentials to the server. -L [bind_address:]port:host:hostport
-L [bind_address:]port:remote_socket
-L local_socket:host:hostport
-L local_socket:remote_socket
Specifies that connections to the given TCP port or Unix socket on the local (client) host are to be forwarded to the given host and port, or Unix socket, on the remote
side. This works by allocating a socket to listen to either a TCP port on the local side, optionally bound to the specified bind_address, or to a Unix socket. Whenever
a connection is made to the local port or socket, the connection is forwarded over the secure channel, and a connection is made to either host port hostport, or the Unix
socket remote_socket, from the remote machine. Port forwardings can also be specified in the configuration file. Only the superuser can forward privileged ports. IPv6 addresses can be specified by enclosing the
address 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 ‘*’ indicates that the port should be
available from all interfaces. -l login_name
Specifies the user to log in as on the remote machine. This also may be specified on a per-host basis in the configuration file. -M Places the ssh client into “master” mode for connection sharing. Multiple -M options places ssh into “master” mode with confirmation required before slave connections
are accepted. Refer to the description of ControlMaster in ssh_config() for details. -m mac_spec
A comma-separated list of MAC (message authentication code) algorithms, specified in order of preference. See the MACs keyword for more information. -N Do not execute a remote command. This is useful for just forwarding ports. -n Redirects stdin from /dev/null (actually, prevents reading from stdin). This must be used when ssh is run in the background. A common trick is to use this to run X11
programs on a remote machine. For example, ssh -n shadows.cs.hut.fi emacs & will start an emacs on shadows.cs.hut.fi, and the X11 connection will be automatically for‐
warded over an encrypted channel. The ssh program will be put in the background. (This does not work if ssh needs to ask for a password or passphrase; see also the -f
option.) -O ctl_cmd
Control an active connection multiplexing master process. When the -O option is specified, the ctl_cmd argument is interpreted and passed to the master process. Valid
commands are: “check” (check that the master process is running), “forward” (request forwardings without command execution), “cancel” (cancel forwardings), “exit”
(request the master to exit), and “stop” (request the master to stop accepting further multiplexing requests). -o option
Can be used to give options in the format used in the configuration file. This is useful for specifying options for which there is no separate command-line flag. For
full details of the options listed below, and their possible values, see ssh_config(). AddKeysToAgent

XAuthLocation -p port
Port to connect to on the remote host. This can be specified on a per-host basis in the configuration file. -Q query_option
Queries ssh for the algorithms supported for the specified version . The available features are: cipher (supported symmetric ciphers), cipher-auth (supported symmetric
ciphers that support authenticated encryption), mac (supported message integrity codes), kex (key exchange algorithms), key (key types), key-cert (certificate key types),
key-plain (non-certificate key types), and protocol-version (supported SSH protocol versions). -q Quiet mode. Causes most warning and diagnostic messages to be suppressed. -R [bind_address:]port:host:hostport
-R [bind_address:]port:local_socket
-R remote_socket:host:hostport
-R remote_socket:local_socket
Specifies that connections to the given TCP port or Unix socket on the remote (server) host are to be forwarded to the given host and port, or Unix socket, on the local
side. This works by allocating a socket to listen to either a TCP port or to a Unix socket on the remote side. Whenever a connection is made to this port or Unix
socket, the connection is forwarded over the secure channel, and a connection is made to either host port hostport, or local_socket, from the local machine. Port forwardings can also be specified in the configuration file. Privileged ports can be forwarded only when logging in as root on the remote machine. IPv6 addresses
can be specified by enclosing the address in square brackets. By default, TCP listening sockets on the server will be bound to the loopback interface only. This may be overridden by specifying a bind_address. An empty
bind_address, or the address ‘*’, indicates that the remote socket should listen on all interfaces. Specifying a remote bind_address will only succeed if the server's
GatewayPorts option is enabled (see sshd_config()). If the port argument is ‘’, the listen port will be dynamically allocated on the server and reported to the client at run time. When used together with -O forward the
allocated port will be printed to the standard output. -S ctl_path
Specifies the location of a control socket for connection sharing, or the string “none” to disable connection sharing. Refer to the description of ControlPath and
ControlMaster in ssh_config() for details. -s May be used to request invocation of a subsystem on the remote system. Subsystems facilitate the use of SSH as a secure transport for other applications (e.g. sftp()).
The subsystem is specified as the remote command. -T Disable pseudo-terminal allocation. -t Force pseudo-terminal allocation. This can be used to execute arbitrary screen-based programs on a remote machine, which can be very useful, e.g. when implementing menu
services. Multiple -t options force tty allocation, even if ssh has no local tty. -V Display the version number and exit. -v Verbose mode. Causes ssh to print debugging messages about its progress. This is helpful in debugging connection, authentication, and configuration problems. Multiple
-v options increase the verbosity. The maximum is . -W host:port
Requests that standard input and output on the client be forwarded to host on port over the secure channel. Implies -N, -T, ExitOnForwardFailure and ClearAllForwardings,
though these can be overridden in the configuration file or using -o command line options. -w local_tun[:remote_tun]
Requests tunnel device forwarding with the specified tun() devices between the client (local_tun) and the server (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”.
See also the Tunnel and TunnelDevice directives in ssh_config(). If the Tunnel directive is unset, it is set to the default tunnel mode, which is “point-to-point”. -X Enables X11 forwarding. This can also be specified on a per-host basis in a configuration file. 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. For this reason, X11 forwarding is subjected to X11 SECURITY extension restrictions by default. Please refer to the ssh -Y option and the ForwardX11Trusted directive in
ssh_config() for more information. -x Disables X11 forwarding. -Y Enables trusted X11 forwarding. Trusted X11 forwardings are not subjected to the X11 SECURITY extension controls. -y Send log information using the syslog() system module. By default this information is sent to stderr. ssh may additionally obtain configuration data from a per-user configuration file and a system-wide configuration file. The file format and configuration options are described
in ssh_config(). AUTHENTICATION
The OpenSSH SSH client supports SSH protocols and . The default is to use protocol only, though this can be changed via the Protocol option in ssh_config() or the - and
- options (see above). Protocol should not be used and is only offered to support legacy devices. It suffers from a number of cryptographic weaknesses and doesn't support
many of the advanced features available for protocol . The methods available for authentication are: GSSAPI-based authentication, host-based authentication, public key authentication, challenge-response authentication, and password
authentication. Authentication methods are tried in the order specified above, though PreferredAuthentications can be used to change the default order. Host-based authentication works as follows: If the machine the user logs in from is listed in /etc/hosts.equiv or /etc/ssh/shosts.equiv on the remote machine, and the user names
are the same on both sides, or if the files ~/.rhosts or ~/.shosts exist in the user's home directory on the remote machine and contain a line containing the name of the client
machine and the name of the user on that machine, the user is considered for login. Additionally, the server must be able to verify the client's host key (see the description of
/etc/ssh/ssh_known_hosts and ~/.ssh/known_hosts, below) for login to be permitted. This authentication method closes security holes due to IP spoofing, DNS spoofing, and routing
spoofing. [Note to the administrator: /etc/hosts.equiv, ~/.rhosts, and the rlogin/rsh protocol in general, are inherently insecure and should be disabled if security is
desired.] Public key authentication works as follows: The scheme is based on public-key cryptography, using cryptosystems where encryption and decryption are done using separate keys, and
it is unfeasible to derive the decryption key from the encryption key. The idea is that each user creates a public/private key pair for authentication purposes. The server
knows the public key, and only the user knows the private key. ssh implements public key authentication protocol automatically, using one of the DSA, ECDSA, Ed25519 or RSA algo‐
rithms. The HISTORY section of ssl() contains a brief discussion of the DSA and RSA algorithms. The file ~/.ssh/authorized_keys lists the public keys that are permitted for logging in. When the user logs in, the ssh program tells the server which key pair it would like to
use for authentication. The client proves that it has access to the private key and the server checks that the corresponding public key is authorized to accept the account. The user creates his/her key pair by running ssh-keygen(). This stores the private key in ~/.ssh/identity (protocol ), ~/.ssh/id_dsa (DSA), ~/.ssh/id_ecdsa (ECDSA),
~/.ssh/id_ed25519 (Ed25519), or ~/.ssh/id_rsa (RSA) and stores the public key in ~/.ssh/identity.pub (protocol ), ~/.ssh/id_dsa.pub (DSA), ~/.ssh/id_ecdsa.pub (ECDSA),
~/.ssh/id_ed25519.pub (Ed25519), or ~/.ssh/id_rsa.pub (RSA) in the user's home directory. The user should then copy the public key to ~/.ssh/authorized_keys in his/her home
directory on the remote machine. The authorized_keys file corresponds to the conventional ~/.rhosts file, and has one key per line, though the lines can be very long. After
this, the user can log in without giving the password. A variation on public key authentication is available in the form of certificate authentication: instead of a set of public/private keys, signed certificates are used. This has
the advantage that a single trusted certification authority can be used in place of many public/private keys. See the CERTIFICATES section of ssh-keygen() for more information. The most convenient way to use public key or certificate authentication may be with an authentication agent. See ssh-agent() and (optionally) the AddKeysToAgent directive in
ssh_config() for more information. Challenge-response authentication works as follows: The server sends an arbitrary "challenge" text, and prompts for a response. Examples of challenge-response authentication
include BSD Authentication (see login.conf()) and PAM (some non-OpenBSD systems). Finally, if other authentication methods fail, ssh prompts the user for a password. The password is sent to the remote host for checking; however, since all communications are
encrypted, the password cannot be seen by someone listening on the network. ssh automatically maintains and checks a database containing identification for all hosts it has ever been used with. Host keys are stored in ~/.ssh/known_hosts in the user's
home directory. Additionally, the file /etc/ssh/ssh_known_hosts is automatically checked for known hosts. Any new hosts are automatically added to the user's file. If a host's
identification ever changes, ssh warns about this and disables password authentication to prevent server spoofing or man-in-the-middle attacks, which could otherwise be used to
circumvent the encryption. The StrictHostKeyChecking option can be used to control logins to machines whose host key is not known or has changed. When the user's identity has been accepted by the server, the server either executes the given command in a non-interactive session or, if no command has been specified, logs
into the machine and gives the user a normal shell as an interactive session. All communication with the remote command or shell will be automatically encrypted. If an interactive session is requested ssh by default will only request a pseudo-terminal (pty) for interactive sessions when the client has one. The flags -T and -t can be used
to override this behaviour. If a pseudo-terminal has been allocated the user may use the escape characters noted below. If no pseudo-terminal has been allocated, the session is transparent and can be used to reliably transfer binary data. On most systems, setting the escape character to “none”
will also make the session transparent even if a tty is used. The session terminates when the command or shell on the remote machine exits and all X11 and TCP connections have been closed. ESCAPE CHARACTERS
When a pseudo-terminal has been requested, ssh supports a number of functions through the use of an escape character. A single tilde character can be sent as ~~ or by following the tilde by a character other than those described below. The escape character must always follow a newline to be
interpreted as special. The escape character can be changed in configuration files using the EscapeChar configuration directive or on the command line by the -e option. The supported escapes (assuming the default ‘~’) are: ~. Disconnect. ~^Z Background ssh. ~# List forwarded connections. ~& Background ssh at logout when waiting for forwarded connection / X11 sessions to terminate. ~? Display a list of escape characters. ~B Send a BREAK to the remote system (only useful if the peer supports it). ~C Open command line. Currently this allows the addition of port forwardings using the -L, -R and -D options (see above). It also allows the cancellation of existing port-
forwardings with -KL[bind_address:]port for local, -KR[bind_address:]port for remote and -KD[bind_address:]port for dynamic port-forwardings. !command allows the user to
execute a local command if the PermitLocalCommand option is enabled in ssh_config(). Basic help is available, using the -h option. ~R Request rekeying of the connection (only useful if the peer supports it). ~V Decrease the verbosity (LogLevel) when errors are being written to stderr. ~v Increase the verbosity (LogLevel) when errors are being written to stderr. TCP FORWARDING
Forwarding of arbitrary TCP connections over the secure channel can be specified either on the command line or in a configuration file. One possible application of TCP forward‐
ing is a secure connection to a mail server; another is going through firewalls. In the example below, we look at encrypting communication between an IRC client and server, even though the IRC server does not directly support encrypted communications. This
works as follows: the user connects to the remote host using ssh, specifying a port to be used to forward connections to the remote server. After that it is possible to start
the service which is to be encrypted on the client machine, connecting to the same local port, and ssh will encrypt and forward the connection. The following example tunnels an IRC session from client machine “127.0.0.1” (localhost) to remote server “server.example.com”: $ ssh -f -L :localhost: server.example.com sleep
$ irc -c '#users' -p pinky 127.0.0.1 This tunnels a connection to IRC server “server.example.com”, joining channel “#users”, nickname “pinky”, using port . It doesn't matter which port is used, as long as it's
greater than (remember, only root can open sockets on privileged ports) and doesn't conflict with any ports already in use. The connection is forwarded to port 6667 on the
remote server, since that's the standard port for IRC services. The -f option backgrounds ssh and the remote command “sleep ” is specified to allow an amount of time ( seconds, in the example) to start the service which is to be tun‐
nelled. If no connections are made within the time specified, ssh will exit. X11 FORWARDING
If the ForwardX11 variable is set to “yes” (or see the description of the -X, -x, and -Y options above) and the user is using X11 (the DISPLAY environment variable is set), the
connection to the X11 display is automatically forwarded to the remote side in such a way that any X11 programs started from the shell (or command) will go through the encrypted
channel, and the connection to the real X server will be made from the local machine. The user should not manually set DISPLAY. Forwarding of X11 connections can be configured
on the command line or in configuration files. The DISPLAY value set by ssh will point to the server machine, but with a display number greater than zero. This is normal, and happens because ssh creates a “proxy” X server on
the server machine for forwarding the connections over the encrypted channel. ssh will also automatically set up Xauthority data on the server machine. For this purpose, it will generate a random authorization cookie, store it in Xauthority on the server,
and verify that any forwarded connections carry this cookie and replace it by the real cookie when the connection is opened. The real authentication cookie is never sent to the
server machine (and no cookies are sent in the plain). If the ForwardAgent variable is set to “yes” (or see the description of the -A and -a options above) and the user is using an authentication agent, the connection to the agent is
automatically forwarded to the remote side. VERIFYING HOST KEYS
When connecting to a server for the first time, a fingerprint of the server's public key is presented to the user (unless the option StrictHostKeyChecking has been disabled).
Fingerprints can be determined using ssh-keygen(): $ ssh-keygen -l -f /etc/ssh/ssh_host_rsa_key If the fingerprint is already known, it can be matched and the key can be accepted or rejected. If only legacy (MD5) fingerprints for the server are available, the ssh-keygen()
-E option may be used to downgrade the fingerprint algorithm to match. Because of the difficulty of comparing host keys just by looking at fingerprint strings, there is also support to compare host keys visually, using random art. By setting the
VisualHostKey option to “yes”, a small ASCII graphic gets displayed on every login to a server, no matter if the session itself is interactive or not. By learning the pattern a
known server produces, a user can easily find out that the host key has changed when a completely different pattern is displayed. Because these patterns are not unambiguous how‐
ever, a pattern that looks similar to the pattern remembered only gives a good probability that the host key is the same, not guaranteed proof. To get a listing of the fingerprints along with their random art for all known hosts, the following command line can be used: $ ssh-keygen -lv -f ~/.ssh/known_hosts If the fingerprint is unknown, an alternative method of verification is available: SSH fingerprints verified by DNS. An additional resource record (RR), SSHFP, is added to a
zonefile and the connecting client is able to match the fingerprint with that of the key presented. In this example, we are connecting a client to a server, “host.example.com”. The SSHFP resource records should first be added to the zonefile for host.example.com: $ ssh-keygen -r host.example.com. The output lines will have to be added to the zonefile. To check that the zone is answering fingerprint queries: $ dig -t SSHFP host.example.com Finally the client connects: $ ssh -o "VerifyHostKeyDNS ask" host.example.com
[...]
Matching host key fingerprint found in DNS.
Are you sure you want to continue connecting (yes/no)? See the VerifyHostKeyDNS option in ssh_config() for more information. SSH-BASED VIRTUAL PRIVATE NETWORKS
ssh contains support for Virtual Private Network (VPN) tunnelling using the tun() network pseudo-device, allowing two networks to be joined securely. The sshd_config() config‐
uration option PermitTunnel controls whether the server supports this, and at what level (layer or traffic). The following example would connect client network 10.0.50.0/ with remote network 10.0.99.0/ using a point-to-point connection from 10.1.1.1 to 10.1.1.2, provided that the
SSH server running on the gateway to the remote network, at 192.168.1.15, allows it. On the client: # ssh -f -w : 192.168.1.15 true
# ifconfig tun0 10.1.1.1 10.1.1.2 netmask 255.255.255.252
# route add 10.0.99.0/ 10.1.1.2 On the server: # ifconfig tun1 10.1.1.2 10.1.1.1 netmask 255.255.255.252
# route add 10.0.50.0/ 10.1.1.1 Client access may be more finely tuned via the /root/.ssh/authorized_keys file (see below) and the PermitRootLogin server option. The following entry would permit connections on
tun() device from user “jane” and on tun device from user “john”, if PermitRootLogin is set to “forced-commands-only”: tunnel="",command="sh /etc/netstart tun1" ssh-rsa ... jane
tunnel="",command="sh /etc/netstart tun2" ssh-rsa ... john Since an SSH-based setup entails a fair amount of overhead, it may be more suited to temporary setups, such as for wireless VPNs. More permanent VPNs are better provided by
tools such as ipsecctl() and isakmpd(). ENVIRONMENT
ssh will normally set the following environment variables: DISPLAY The DISPLAY variable indicates the location of the X11 server. It is automatically set by ssh to point to a value of the form “hostname:n”, where
“hostname” indicates the host where the shell runs, and ‘n’ is an integer ≥ . ssh uses this special value to forward X11 connections over the secure chan‐
nel. The user should normally not set DISPLAY explicitly, as that will render the X11 connection insecure (and will require the user to manually copy any
required authorization cookies). HOME Set to the path of the user's home directory. LOGNAME Synonym for USER; set for compatibility with systems that use this variable. MAIL Set to the path of the user's mailbox. PATH Set to the default PATH, as specified when compiling ssh. SSH_ASKPASS If ssh needs a passphrase, it will read the passphrase from the current terminal if it was run from a terminal. If ssh 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 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. SSH_CONNECTION Identifies the client and server ends of the connection. The variable contains four space-separated values: client IP address, client port number, server
IP address, and server port number. SSH_ORIGINAL_COMMAND This variable contains the original command line if a forced command is executed. It can be used to extract the original arguments. SSH_USER_AUTH This variable contains, for SSH2 only, a comma-separated list of authentication methods that were successfuly used to authenticate. When possible, these
methods are extended with detailed information on the credential used. SSH_TTY This is set to the name of the tty (path to the device) associated with the current shell or command. If the current session has no tty, this variable is
not set. TZ This variable is set to indicate the present time zone if it was set when the daemon was started (i.e. the daemon passes the value on to new connections). USER Set to the name of the user logging in. Additionally, ssh reads ~/.ssh/environment, and adds lines of the format “VARNAME=value” to the environment if the file exists and users are allowed to change their environment.
For more information, see the PermitUserEnvironment option in sshd_config(). ENVIRONMENT
SSH_USE_STRONG_RNG
The reseeding of the OpenSSL random generator is usually done from /dev/urandom. If the SSH_USE_STRONG_RNG environment variable is set to value other than the OpenSSL
random generator is reseeded from /dev/random. The number of bytes read is defined by the SSH_USE_STRONG_RNG value. Minimum is bytes. This setting is not recom‐
mended on the computers without the hardware random generator because insufficient entropy causes the connection to be blocked until enough entropy is available. FILES
~/.rhosts
This file is used for host-based authentication (see above). On some machines this file may need to be world-readable if the user's home directory is on an NFS parti‐
tion, because sshd() reads it as root. Additionally, this file must be owned by the user, and must not have write permissions for anyone else. The recommended permis‐
sion for most machines is read/write for the user, and not accessible by others. ~/.shosts
This file is used in exactly the same way as .rhosts, but allows host-based authentication without permitting login with rlogin/rsh. ~/.ssh/
This directory is the default location for all user-specific configuration and authentication information. There is no general requirement to keep the entire contents of
this directory secret, but the recommended permissions are read/write/execute for the user, and not accessible by others. ~/.ssh/authorized_keys
Lists the public keys (DSA, ECDSA, Ed25519, RSA) that can be used for logging in as this user. The format of this file is described in the sshd() manual page. This
file is not highly sensitive, but the recommended permissions are read/write for the user, and not accessible by others. ~/.ssh/config
This is the per-user configuration file. The file format and configuration options are described in ssh_config(). Because of the potential for abuse, this file must
have strict permissions: read/write for the user, and not writable by others. ~/.ssh/environment
Contains additional definitions for environment variables; see ENVIRONMENT, above. ~/.ssh/identity
~/.ssh/id_dsa
~/.ssh/id_ecdsa
~/.ssh/id_ed25519
~/.ssh/id_rsa
Contains the private key for authentication. These files contain sensitive data and should be readable by the user but not accessible by others (read/write/execute).
ssh will simply ignore a private key file if it is accessible by others. It is possible to specify a passphrase when generating the key which will be used to encrypt the
sensitive part of this file using 3DES. ~/.ssh/identity.pub
~/.ssh/id_dsa.pub
~/.ssh/id_ecdsa.pub
~/.ssh/id_ed25519.pub
~/.ssh/id_rsa.pub
Contains the public key for authentication. These files are not sensitive and can (but need not) be readable by anyone. ~/.ssh/known_hosts
Contains a list of host keys for all hosts the user has logged into that are not already in the systemwide list of known host keys. See sshd() for further details of
the format of this file. ~/.ssh/rc
Commands in this file are executed by ssh when the user logs in, just before the user's shell (or command) is started. See the sshd(8) manual page for more information. /etc/hosts.equiv
This file is for host-based authentication (see above). It should only be writable by root. /etc/ssh/shosts.equiv
This file is used in exactly the same way as hosts.equiv, but allows host-based authentication without permitting login with rlogin/rsh. /etc/ssh/ssh_config
Systemwide configuration file. The file format and configuration options are described in ssh_config(). /etc/ssh/ssh_host_key
/etc/ssh/ssh_host_dsa_key
/etc/ssh/ssh_host_ecdsa_key
/etc/ssh/ssh_host_ed25519_key
/etc/ssh/ssh_host_rsa_key
These files contain the private parts of the host keys and are used for host-based authentication. /etc/ssh/ssh_known_hosts
Systemwide list of known host keys. This file should be prepared by the system administrator to contain the public host keys of all machines in the organization. It
should be world-readable. See sshd() for further details of the format of this file. /etc/ssh/sshrc
Commands in this file are executed by ssh when the user logs in, just before the user's shell (or command) is started. See the sshd(8) manual page for more information. EXIT STATUS
ssh exits with the exit status of the remote command or with if an error occurred. IPV6
IPv6 address can be used everywhere where IPv4 address. In all entries must be the IPv6 address enclosed in square brackets. Note: The square brackets are metacharacters for the
shell and must be escaped in shell. SEE ALSO
