49 | .Sh DESCRIPTION | |
c5786b30 | 50 | .Xr ssh 1 |
588df31a | 51 | obtains configuration data from the following sources in |
52 | the following order: | |
922f8f17 | 53 | .Pp |
4dcbbeea | 54 | .Bl -enum -offset indent -compact |
55 | .It | |
56 | command-line options | |
57 | .It | |
58 | user's configuration file | |
140e3e97 | 59 | .Pq Pa ~/.ssh/config |
4dcbbeea | 60 | .It |
61 | system-wide configuration file | |
62 | .Pq Pa /etc/ssh/ssh_config | |
63 | .El | |
588df31a | 64 | .Pp |
65 | For each parameter, the first obtained value | |
66 | will be used. | |
7034edae | 67 | The configuration files contain sections separated by |
588df31a | 68 | .Dq Host |
69 | specifications, and that section is only applied for hosts that | |
70 | match one of the patterns given in the specification. | |
71 | The matched host name is the one given on the command line. | |
72 | .Pp | |
73 | Since the first obtained value for each parameter is used, more | |
74 | host-specific declarations should be given near the beginning of the | |
75 | file, and general defaults at the end. | |
76 | .Pp | |
77 | The configuration file has the following format: | |
78 | .Pp | |
79 | Empty lines and lines starting with | |
80 | .Ql # | |
81 | are comments. | |
588df31a | 82 | Otherwise a line is of the format |
83 | .Dq keyword arguments . | |
84 | Configuration options may be separated by whitespace or | |
85 | optional whitespace and exactly one | |
86 | .Ql = ; | |
87 | the latter format is useful to avoid the need to quote whitespace | |
88 | when specifying configuration options using the | |
89 | .Nm ssh , | |
c04ba6a6 | 90 | .Nm scp , |
588df31a | 91 | and |
92 | .Nm sftp | |
93 | .Fl o | |
94 | option. | |
533b9133 | 95 | Arguments may optionally be enclosed in double quotes |
96 | .Pq \&" | |
97 | in order to represent arguments containing spaces. | |
588df31a | 98 | .Pp |
99 | The possible | |
100 | keywords and their meanings are as follows (note that | |
101 | keywords are case-insensitive and arguments are case-sensitive): | |
102 | .Bl -tag -width Ds | |
103 | .It Cm Host | |
104 | Restricts the following declarations (up to the next | |
105 | .Cm Host | |
106 | keyword) to be only for those hosts that match one of the patterns | |
107 | given after the keyword. | |
588df31a | 108 | A single |
f09ffbdb | 109 | .Ql * |
588df31a | 110 | as a pattern can be used to provide global |
111 | defaults for all hosts. | |
112 | The host is the | |
113 | .Ar hostname | |
f09ffbdb | 114 | argument given on the command line (i.e. the name is not converted to |
588df31a | 115 | a canonicalized host name before matching). |
436a5ff9 | 116 | .Pp |
117 | See | |
118 | .Sx PATTERNS | |
119 | for more information on patterns. | |
f811e52a | 120 | .It Cm AddressFamily |
3cbc677d | 121 | Specifies which address family to use when connecting. |
122 | Valid arguments are | |
f811e52a | 123 | .Dq any , |
124 | .Dq inet | |
c5786b30 | 125 | (use IPv4 only), or |
f811e52a | 126 | .Dq inet6 |
0d6cbe2c | 127 | (use IPv6 only). |
588df31a | 128 | .It Cm BatchMode |
129 | If set to | |
130 | .Dq yes , | |
131 | passphrase/password querying will be disabled. | |
132 | This option is useful in scripts and other batch jobs where no user | |
133 | is present to supply the password. | |
134 | The argument must be | |
135 | .Dq yes | |
136 | or | |
137 | .Dq no . | |
138 | The default is | |
139 | .Dq no . | |
140 | .It Cm BindAddress | |
1a8521be | 141 | Use the specified address on the local machine as the source address of |
82b7531b | 142 | the connection. |
143 | Only useful on systems with more than one address. | |
588df31a | 144 | Note that this option does not work if |
145 | .Cm UsePrivilegedPort | |
146 | is set to | |
147 | .Dq yes . | |
148 | .It Cm ChallengeResponseAuthentication | |
340a4caf | 149 | Specifies whether to use challenge-response authentication. |
588df31a | 150 | The argument to this keyword must be |
151 | .Dq yes | |
152 | or | |
153 | .Dq no . | |
154 | The default is | |
155 | .Dq yes . | |
156 | .It Cm CheckHostIP | |
157 | If this flag is set to | |
158 | .Dq yes , | |
c5786b30 | 159 | .Xr ssh 1 |
160 | will additionally check the host IP address in the | |
588df31a | 161 | .Pa known_hosts |
162 | file. | |
163 | This allows ssh to detect if a host key changed due to DNS spoofing. | |
164 | If the option is set to | |
165 | .Dq no , | |
166 | the check will not be executed. | |
167 | The default is | |
168 | .Dq yes . | |
169 | .It Cm Cipher | |
170 | Specifies the cipher to use for encrypting the session | |
171 | in protocol version 1. | |
172 | Currently, | |
173 | .Dq blowfish , | |
174 | .Dq 3des , | |
175 | and | |
176 | .Dq des | |
177 | are supported. | |
178 | .Ar des | |
179 | is only supported in the | |
c5786b30 | 180 | .Xr ssh 1 |
588df31a | 181 | client for interoperability with legacy protocol 1 implementations |
182 | that do not support the | |
183 | .Ar 3des | |
a4e5acef | 184 | cipher. |
185 | Its use is strongly discouraged due to cryptographic weaknesses. | |
588df31a | 186 | The default is |
187 | .Dq 3des . | |
188 | .It Cm Ciphers | |
189 | Specifies the ciphers allowed for protocol version 2 | |
190 | in order of preference. | |
191 | Multiple ciphers must be comma-separated. | |
3b9baa7b | 192 | The supported ciphers are |
193 | .Dq 3des-cbc , | |
194 | .Dq aes128-cbc , | |
195 | .Dq aes192-cbc , | |
196 | .Dq aes256-cbc , | |
197 | .Dq aes128-ctr , | |
198 | .Dq aes192-ctr , | |
199 | .Dq aes256-ctr , | |
74a66cc8 | 200 | .Dq arcfour128 , |
201 | .Dq arcfour256 , | |
3b9baa7b | 202 | .Dq arcfour , |
203 | .Dq blowfish-cbc , | |
204 | and | |
205 | .Dq cast128-cbc . | |
c5786b30 | 206 | The default is: |
207 | .Bd -literal -offset 3n | |
208 | aes128-cbc,3des-cbc,blowfish-cbc,cast128-cbc,arcfour128, | |
209 | arcfour256,arcfour,aes192-cbc,aes256-cbc,aes128-ctr, | |
210 | aes192-ctr,aes256-ctr | |
588df31a | 211 | .Ed |
212 | .It Cm ClearAllForwardings | |
c5786b30 | 213 | Specifies that all local, remote, and dynamic port forwardings |
588df31a | 214 | specified in the configuration files or on the command line be |
a4e5acef | 215 | cleared. |
216 | This option is primarily useful when used from the | |
c5786b30 | 217 | .Xr ssh 1 |
588df31a | 218 | command line to clear port forwardings set in |
219 | configuration files, and is automatically set by | |
220 | .Xr scp 1 | |
221 | and | |
222 | .Xr sftp 1 . | |
223 | The argument must be | |
224 | .Dq yes | |
225 | or | |
226 | .Dq no . | |
227 | The default is | |
228 | .Dq no . | |
229 | .It Cm Compression | |
230 | Specifies whether to use compression. | |
231 | The argument must be | |
232 | .Dq yes | |
233 | or | |
234 | .Dq no . | |
235 | The default is | |
236 | .Dq no . | |
237 | .It Cm CompressionLevel | |
238 | Specifies the compression level to use if compression is enabled. | |
239 | The argument must be an integer from 1 (fast) to 9 (slow, best). | |
240 | The default level is 6, which is good for most applications. | |
241 | The meaning of the values is the same as in | |
242 | .Xr gzip 1 . | |
243 | Note that this option applies to protocol version 1 only. | |
244 | .It Cm ConnectionAttempts | |
245 | Specifies the number of tries (one per second) to make before exiting. | |
246 | The argument must be an integer. | |
247 | This may be useful in scripts if the connection sometimes fails. | |
248 | The default is 1. | |
09ab3296 | 249 | .It Cm ConnectTimeout |
c5786b30 | 250 | Specifies the timeout (in seconds) used when connecting to the |
251 | SSH server, instead of using the default system TCP timeout. | |
3cbc677d | 252 | This value is used only when the target is down or really unreachable, |
253 | not when it refuses the connection. | |
5e96b616 | 254 | .It Cm ControlMaster |
255 | Enables the sharing of multiple sessions over a single network connection. | |
256 | When set to | |
c5786b30 | 257 | .Dq yes , |
258 | .Xr ssh 1 | |
5e96b616 | 259 | will listen for connections on a control socket specified using the |
260 | .Cm ControlPath | |
261 | argument. | |
262 | Additional sessions can connect to this socket using the same | |
263 | .Cm ControlPath | |
264 | with | |
265 | .Cm ControlMaster | |
266 | set to | |
267 | .Dq no | |
9a5cfb58 | 268 | (the default). |
db98627d | 269 | These sessions will try to reuse the master instance's network connection |
6b0b0d65 | 270 | rather than initiating new ones, but will fall back to connecting normally |
271 | if the control socket does not exist, or is not listening. | |
272 | .Pp | |
0d34d6ce | 273 | Setting this to |
274 | .Dq ask | |
c5786b30 | 275 | will cause ssh |
0d34d6ce | 276 | to listen for control connections, but require confirmation using the |
277 | .Ev SSH_ASKPASS | |
278 | program before they are accepted (see | |
279 | .Xr ssh-add 1 | |
9a5cfb58 | 280 | for details). |
cc8ca1e6 | 281 | If the |
282 | .Cm ControlPath | |
c5786b30 | 283 | cannot be opened, |
284 | ssh will continue without connecting to a master instance. | |
9dfd96d6 | 285 | .Pp |
ef07103c | 286 | X11 and |
d313869b | 287 | .Xr ssh-agent 1 |
ef07103c | 288 | forwarding is supported over these multiplexed connections, however the |
8918b906 | 289 | display and agent forwarded will be the one belonging to the master |
d313869b | 290 | connection i.e. it is not possible to forward multiple displays or agents. |
ef07103c | 291 | .Pp |
9dfd96d6 | 292 | Two additional options allow for opportunistic multiplexing: try to use a |
293 | master connection but fall back to creating a new one if one does not already | |
294 | exist. | |
295 | These options are: | |
296 | .Dq auto | |
297 | and | |
298 | .Dq autoask . | |
299 | The latter requires confirmation like the | |
300 | .Dq ask | |
301 | option. | |
5e96b616 | 302 | .It Cm ControlPath |
a980cbd7 | 303 | Specify the path to the control socket used for connection sharing as described |
304 | in the | |
5e96b616 | 305 | .Cm ControlMaster |
699255b5 | 306 | section above or the string |
307 | .Dq none | |
308 | to disable connection sharing. | |
a980cbd7 | 309 | In the path, |
f7b8224d | 310 | .Ql %l |
311 | will be substituted by the local host name, | |
a980cbd7 | 312 | .Ql %h |
313 | will be substituted by the target host name, | |
314 | .Ql %p | |
c5786b30 | 315 | the port, and |
a980cbd7 | 316 | .Ql %r |
317 | by the remote login username. | |
9dfd96d6 | 318 | It is recommended that any |
319 | .Cm ControlPath | |
320 | used for opportunistic connection sharing include | |
5e7007ea | 321 | at least %h, %p, and %r. |
9dfd96d6 | 322 | This ensures that shared connections are uniquely identified. |
9a5cfb58 | 323 | .It Cm DynamicForward |
0b3950af | 324 | Specifies that a TCP port on the local machine be forwarded |
9a5cfb58 | 325 | over the secure channel, and the application |
326 | protocol is then used to determine where to connect to from the | |
327 | remote machine. | |
5ddc5eb4 | 328 | .Pp |
329 | The argument must be | |
330 | .Sm off | |
331 | .Oo Ar bind_address : Oc Ar port . | |
332 | .Sm on | |
333 | IPv6 addresses can be specified by enclosing addresses in square brackets or | |
334 | by using an alternative syntax: | |
335 | .Oo Ar bind_address Ns / Oc Ns Ar port . | |
336 | By default, the local port is bound in accordance with the | |
337 | .Cm GatewayPorts | |
338 | setting. | |
339 | However, an explicit | |
340 | .Ar bind_address | |
341 | may be used to bind the connection to a specific address. | |
342 | The | |
343 | .Ar bind_address | |
344 | of | |
345 | .Dq localhost | |
346 | indicates that the listening port be bound for local use only, while an | |
347 | empty address or | |
348 | .Sq * | |
349 | indicates that the port should be available from all interfaces. | |
350 | .Pp | |
9a5cfb58 | 351 | Currently the SOCKS4 and SOCKS5 protocols are supported, and |
c5786b30 | 352 | .Xr ssh 1 |
9a5cfb58 | 353 | will act as a SOCKS server. |
354 | Multiple forwardings may be specified, and | |
355 | additional forwardings can be given on the command line. | |
356 | Only the superuser can forward privileged ports. | |
f0677b69 | 357 | .It Cm EnableSSHKeysign |
358 | Setting this option to | |
359 | .Dq yes | |
360 | in the global client configuration file | |
361 | .Pa /etc/ssh/ssh_config | |
362 | enables the use of the helper program | |
363 | .Xr ssh-keysign 8 | |
364 | during | |
365 | .Cm HostbasedAuthentication . | |
366 | The argument must be | |
367 | .Dq yes | |
368 | or | |
369 | .Dq no . | |
370 | The default is | |
371 | .Dq no . | |
246bb171 | 372 | This option should be placed in the non-hostspecific section. |
f0677b69 | 373 | See |
374 | .Xr ssh-keysign 8 | |
375 | for more information. | |
588df31a | 376 | .It Cm EscapeChar |
377 | Sets the escape character (default: | |
378 | .Ql ~ ) . | |
379 | The escape character can also | |
380 | be set on the command line. | |
381 | The argument should be a single character, | |
382 | .Ql ^ | |
383 | followed by a letter, or | |
384 | .Dq none | |
385 | to disable the escape | |
386 | character entirely (making the connection transparent for binary | |
387 | data). | |
42ea6f5e | 388 | .It Cm ExitOnForwardFailure |
389 | Specifies whether | |
390 | .Xr ssh 1 | |
391 | should terminate the connection if it cannot set up all requested | |
392 | dynamic, local, and remote port forwardings. | |
393 | The argument must be | |
394 | .Dq yes | |
395 | or | |
396 | .Dq no . | |
397 | The default is | |
398 | .Dq no . | |
588df31a | 399 | .It Cm ForwardAgent |
400 | Specifies whether the connection to the authentication agent (if any) | |
401 | will be forwarded to the remote machine. | |
402 | The argument must be | |
403 | .Dq yes | |
404 | or | |
405 | .Dq no . | |
406 | The default is | |
407 | .Dq no . | |
dbcdea68 | 408 | .Pp |
a4e5acef | 409 | Agent forwarding should be enabled with caution. |
410 | Users with the ability to bypass file permissions on the remote host | |
411 | (for the agent's Unix-domain socket) | |
412 | can access the local agent through the forwarded connection. | |
413 | An attacker cannot obtain key material from the agent, | |
dbcdea68 | 414 | however they can perform operations on the keys that enable them to |
415 | authenticate using the identities loaded into the agent. | |
588df31a | 416 | .It Cm ForwardX11 |
417 | Specifies whether X11 connections will be automatically redirected | |
418 | over the secure channel and | |
419 | .Ev DISPLAY | |
420 | set. | |
421 | The argument must be | |
422 | .Dq yes | |
423 | or | |
424 | .Dq no . | |
425 | The default is | |
426 | .Dq no . | |
dbcdea68 | 427 | .Pp |
a4e5acef | 428 | X11 forwarding should be enabled with caution. |
429 | Users with the ability to bypass file permissions on the remote host | |
d73a67d7 | 430 | (for the user's X11 authorization database) |
a4e5acef | 431 | can access the local X11 display through the forwarded connection. |
d73a67d7 | 432 | An attacker may then be able to perform activities such as keystroke monitoring |
433 | if the | |
434 | .Cm ForwardX11Trusted | |
435 | option is also enabled. | |
436 | .It Cm ForwardX11Trusted | |
b2e90ab5 | 437 | If this option is set to |
c5786b30 | 438 | .Dq yes , |
439 | remote X11 clients will have full access to the original X11 display. | |
9a6b3b7a | 440 | .Pp |
d73a67d7 | 441 | If this option is set to |
c5786b30 | 442 | .Dq no , |
443 | remote X11 clients will be considered untrusted and prevented | |
d73a67d7 | 444 | from stealing or tampering with data belonging to trusted X11 |
445 | clients. | |
9a6b3b7a | 446 | Furthermore, the |
447 | .Xr xauth 1 | |
448 | token used for the session will be set to expire after 20 minutes. | |
449 | Remote clients will be refused access after this time. | |
d73a67d7 | 450 | .Pp |
451 | The default is | |
452 | .Dq no . | |
453 | .Pp | |
454 | See the X11 SECURITY extension specification for full details on | |
455 | the restrictions imposed on untrusted clients. | |
588df31a | 456 | .It Cm GatewayPorts |
457 | Specifies whether remote hosts are allowed to connect to local | |
458 | forwarded ports. | |
459 | By default, | |
c5786b30 | 460 | .Xr ssh 1 |

ecda4ffb | 610 | .Oo Ar bind_address Ns / Oc Ns Ar port |
611 | and | |
612 | .Ar host Ns / Ns Ar hostport . | |
cd8f998c | 613 | Multiple forwardings may be specified, and additional forwardings can be |
3867aa0a | 614 | given on the command line. |
588df31a | 615 | Only the superuser can forward privileged ports. |
3867aa0a | 616 | By default, the local port is bound in accordance with the |
617 | .Cm GatewayPorts | |
618 | setting. | |
619 | However, an explicit | |
620 | .Ar bind_address | |
621 | may be used to bind the connection to a specific address. | |
622 | The | |
623 | .Ar bind_address | |
624 | of | |
625 | .Dq localhost | |
cd8f998c | 626 | indicates that the listening port be bound for local use only, while an |
627 | empty address or | |
628 | .Sq * | |
3867aa0a | 629 | indicates that the port should be available from all interfaces. |
588df31a | 630 | .It Cm LogLevel |

718 | .Ql %h | |
719 | will be substituted by the host name to | |
720 | connect and | |
721 | .Ql %p | |
722 | by the port. | |
723 | The command can be basically anything, | |
724 | and should read from its standard input and write to its standard output. | |
725 | It should eventually connect an | |
726 | .Xr sshd 8 | |
727 | server running on some machine, or execute | |
728 | .Ic sshd -i | |
729 | somewhere. | |
730 | Host key management will be done using the | |
731 | HostName of the host being connected (defaulting to the name typed by | |
732 | the user). | |
a4e5acef | 733 | Setting the command to |
734 | .Dq none | |
f78bde70 | 735 | disables this option entirely. |

0b3950af | 773 | Specifies that a TCP port on the remote machine be forwarded over |
588df31a | 774 | the secure channel to the specified host and port from the local machine. |
ecda4ffb | 775 | The first argument must be |
3867aa0a | 776 | .Sm off |
ecda4ffb | 777 | .Oo Ar bind_address : Oc Ar port |
6d7a9e8f | 778 | .Sm on |
ecda4ffb | 779 | and the second argument must be |
780 | .Ar host : Ns Ar hostport . | |
781 | IPv6 addresses can be specified by enclosing addresses in square brackets | |
782 | or by using an alternative syntax: | |
783 | .Oo Ar bind_address Ns / Oc Ns Ar port | |
784 | and | |
785 | .Ar host Ns / Ns Ar hostport . | |
588df31a | 786 | Multiple forwardings may be specified, and additional |
787 | forwardings can be given on the command line. | |
788 | Only the superuser can forward privileged ports. | |
3867aa0a | 789 | .Pp |
790 | If the | |
791 | .Ar bind_address | |
792 | is not specified, the default is to only bind to loopback addresses. | |
793 | If the | |
794 | .Ar bind_address | |
795 | is | |
796 | .Ql * | |
797 | or an empty string, then the forwarding is requested to listen on all | |
798 | interfaces. | |
799 | Specifying a remote | |
800 | .Ar bind_address | |
cd8f998c | 801 | will only succeed if the server's |
802 | .Cm GatewayPorts | |
3867aa0a | 803 | option is enabled (see |
cd8f998c | 804 | .Xr sshd_config 5 ) . |

806 | Specifies whether to try rhosts based authentication with RSA host | |
807 | authentication. | |
808 | The argument must be | |
809 | .Dq yes | |
810 | or | |
811 | .Dq no . | |
812 | The default is | |
813 | .Dq no . | |
814 | This option applies to protocol version 1 only and requires | |
c5786b30 | 815 | .Xr ssh 1 |
588df31a | 816 | to be setuid root. |
817 | .It Cm RSAAuthentication | |
818 | Specifies whether to try RSA authentication. | |
819 | The argument to this keyword must be | |
820 | .Dq yes | |
821 | or | |
822 | .Dq no . | |
823 | RSA authentication will only be | |
824 | attempted if the identity file exists, or an authentication agent is | |
825 | running. | |
826 | The default is | |
827 | .Dq yes . | |
828 | Note that this option applies to protocol version 1 only. | |
61a2c1da | 829 | .It Cm SendEnv |
830 | Specifies what variables from the local | |
831 | .Xr environ 7 | |
832 | should be sent to the server. | |
c5786b30 | 833 | Note that environment passing is only supported for protocol 2. |
834 | The server must also support it, and the server must be configured to | |
b8b9f2e6 | 835 | accept these environment variables. |
61a2c1da | 836 | Refer to |
837 | .Cm AcceptEnv | |
838 | in | |
839 | .Xr sshd_config 5 | |
840 | for how to configure the server. | |
95d46d8f | 841 | Variables are specified by name, which may contain wildcard characters. |
b8b9f2e6 | 842 | Multiple environment variables may be separated by whitespace or spread |
61a2c1da | 843 | across multiple |
844 | .Cm SendEnv | |
845 | directives. | |
846 | The default is not to send any environment variables. | |
436a5ff9 | 847 | .Pp |

850 | for more information on patterns. | |
5d8d32a3 | 851 | .It Cm ServerAliveCountMax |
79e46360 | 852 | Sets the number of server alive messages (see below) which may be |
5d8d32a3 | 853 | sent without |
c5786b30 | 854 | .Xr ssh 1 |
5d8d32a3 | 855 | receiving any messages back from the server. |
856 | If this threshold is reached while server alive messages are being sent, | |
c5786b30 | 857 | ssh will disconnect from the server, terminating the session. |
5d8d32a3 | 858 | It is important to note that the use of server alive messages is very |
859 | different from | |
860 | .Cm TCPKeepAlive | |
861 | (below). | |
862 | The server alive messages are sent through the encrypted channel | |
863 | and therefore will not be spoofable. | |
864 | The TCP keepalive option enabled by | |
865 | .Cm TCPKeepAlive | |
866 | is spoofable. | |
867 | The server alive mechanism is valuable when the client or | |
868 | server depend on knowing when a connection has become inactive. | |
869 | .Pp | |
870 | The default value is 3. | |
871 | If, for example, | |
872 | .Cm ServerAliveInterval | |
c5786b30 | 873 | (see below) is set to 15 and |
5d8d32a3 | 874 | .Cm ServerAliveCountMax |
c5786b30 | 875 | is left at the default, if the server becomes unresponsive, |
876 | ssh will disconnect after approximately 45 seconds. | |
2d762582 | 877 | This option applies to protocol version 2 only. |
030723f9 | 878 | .It Cm ServerAliveInterval |
879 | Sets a timeout interval in seconds after which if no data has been received | |
880 | from the server, | |
c5786b30 | 881 | .Xr ssh 1 |
030723f9 | 882 | will send a message through the encrypted |
883 | channel to request a response from the server. | |
884 | The default | |
885 | is 0, indicating that these messages will not be sent to the server. | |
886 | This option applies to protocol version 2 only. | |
588df31a | 887 | .It Cm SmartcardDevice |
3cbc677d | 888 | Specifies which smartcard device to use. |
889 | The argument to this keyword is the device | |
c5786b30 | 890 | .Xr ssh 1 |
588df31a | 891 | should use to communicate with a smartcard used for storing the user's |
3cbc677d | 892 | private RSA key. |
893 | By default, no device is specified and smartcard support is not activated. | |
588df31a | 894 | .It Cm StrictHostKeyChecking |
895 | If this flag is set to | |
896 | .Dq yes , | |
c5786b30 | 897 | .Xr ssh 1 |

140e3e97 | 899 | .Pa ~/.ssh/known_hosts |
588df31a | 900 | file, and refuses to connect to hosts whose host key has changed. |
901 | This provides maximum protection against trojan horse attacks, | |
c5786b30 | 902 | though it can be annoying when the |
588df31a | 903 | .Pa /etc/ssh/ssh_known_hosts |
c5786b30 | 904 | file is poorly maintained or when connections to new hosts are |
588df31a | 905 | frequently made. |
906 | This option forces the user to manually | |
907 | add all new hosts. | |
908 | If this flag is set to | |

916 | has confirmed that is what they really want to do, and | |
c5786b30 | 917 | ssh will refuse to connect to hosts whose host key has changed. |
588df31a | 918 | The host keys of |

fd573618 | 927 | .It Cm TCPKeepAlive |
928 | Specifies whether the system should send TCP keepalive messages to the | |
929 | other side. | |
930 | If they are sent, death of the connection or crash of one | |
931 | of the machines will be properly noticed. | |
932 | However, this means that | |
933 | connections will die if the route is down temporarily, and some people | |
934 | find it annoying. | |
935 | .Pp | |
936 | The default is | |
937 | .Dq yes | |
938 | (to send TCP keepalive messages), and the client will notice | |
939 | if the network goes down or the remote host dies. | |
940 | This is important in scripts, and many users want it too. | |
941 | .Pp | |
942 | To disable TCP keepalive messages, the value should be set to | |
943 | .Dq no . | |

999 | with older servers. | |
588df31a | 1000 | .It Cm User |
1001 | Specifies the user to log in as. | |
1002 | This can be useful when a different user name is used on different machines. | |
1003 | This saves the trouble of | |
1004 | having to remember to give the user name on the command line. | |
1005 | .It Cm UserKnownHostsFile | |
1006 | Specifies a file to use for the user | |
1007 | host key database instead of | |

1011 | records. | |
0161a13d | 1012 | If this option is set to |
1013 | .Dq yes , | |
dd376e92 | 1014 | the client will implicitly trust keys that match a secure fingerprint |
0161a13d | 1015 | from DNS. |
1016 | Insecure fingerprints will be handled as if this option was set to | |
1017 | .Dq ask . | |
1018 | If this option is set to | |
1019 | .Dq ask , | |
1020 | information on fingerprint match will be displayed, but the user will still | |
1021 | need to confirm new host keys according to the | |
1022 | .Cm StrictHostKeyChecking | |
1023 | option. | |
1024 | The argument must be | |
1025 | .Dq yes , | |
