Type list of uniline. \fR .SS "AuthenticationMethods" .IX Subsection "AuthenticationMethods" Specifies the authentication methods that must be successfully completed for a user to be granted access. This option must be followed by one or more lists of comma-separated authentication method names, or by the single string \fBany\fR to indicate the default behaviour of accepting any single authentication method. If the default is overridden, then successful authentication requires completion of every method in at least one of these lists. .PP For example, \&\*(L"publickey,password publickey,keyboard\-interactive\*(R" would require the user to complete public key authentication, followed by either password or keyboard interactive authentication. Only methods that are next in one or more lists are offered at each stage, so for this example it would not be possible to attempt password or keyboard-interactive authentication before public key. .PP For keyboard interactive authentication it is also possible to restrict authentication to a specific device by appending a colon followed by the device identifier \fBbsdauth\fR or \&\fBpam\fR. depending on the server configuration. For example, \*(L"keyboard\-interactive:bsdauth\*(R" would restrict keyboard interactive authentication to the \&\fBbsdauth\fR device. .PP If the publickey method is listed more than once, \fBsshd\fR\|(8) verifies that keys that have been used successfully are not reused for subsequent authentications. For example, \&\*(L"publickey,publickey\*(R" requires successful authentication using two different public keys. .PP Note that each authentication method listed should also be explicitly enabled in the configuration. .PP The available authentication methods are: \*(L"gssapi-with-mic\*(R", \&\*(L"hostbased\*(R", \*(L"keyboard-interactive\*(R", \&\*(L"none\*(R" (used for access to password-less accounts when \fBPermitEmptyPasswords\fR is enabled), \&\*(L"password\*(R" and \*(L"publickey\*(R". \fI Optional. Type uniline. \fR .SS "AuthorizedKeysCommand" .IX Subsection "AuthorizedKeysCommand" Specifies a program to be used to look up the user's public keys. The program must be owned by root, not writable by group or others and specified by an absolute path. Arguments to \&\fBAuthorizedKeysCommand\fR accept the tokens described in the \fI\s-1TOKENS\s0\fR section. If no arguments are specified then the username of the target user is used. .PP The program should produce on standard output zero or more lines of authorized_keys output (see \fI\s-1AUTHORIZED_KEYS\s0\fR in \&\fBsshd\fR\|(8)). \fBAuthorizedKeysCommand\fR is tried after the usual \fBAuthorizedKeysFile\fR files and will not be executed if a matching key is found there. By default, no \&\fBAuthorizedKeysCommand\fR is run. \fI Optional. Type uniline. \fR .SS "AuthorizedKeysCommandUser" .IX Subsection "AuthorizedKeysCommandUser" Specifies the user under whose account the \fBAuthorizedKeysCommand\fR is run. It is recommended to use a dedicated user that has no other role on the host than running authorized keys commands. If \&\fBAuthorizedKeysCommand\fR is specified but \&\fBAuthorizedKeysCommandUser\fR is not, then \fBsshd\fR\|(8) will refuse to start. \fI Optional.

The format is described in the \s-1AUTHORIZED_KEYS FILE FORMAT\s0 section of \fBsshd\fR\|(8). Arguments to \fBAuthorizedKeysFile\fR accept the tokens described in the \fI\s-1TOKENS\s0\fR section. After expansion, \fBAuthorizedKeysFile\fR is taken to be an absolute path or one relative to the user's home directory. Multiple files may be listed, separated by whitespace. Alternately this option may be set to \&\fBnone\fR to skip checking for user keys in files. The default is \*(L".ssh/authorized_keys \&.ssh/authorized_keys2\*(R". \fI Optional. Type list of uniline. \fR .PP Note: AuthorizedKeysFile values are migrated from '\- AuthorizedKeysFile2' .SS "AuthorizedPrincipalsCommand" .IX Subsection "AuthorizedPrincipalsCommand" Specifies a program to be used to generate the list of allowed certificate principals as per \fBAuthorizedPrincipalsFile\fR. The program must be owned by root, not writable by group or others and specified by an absolute path. Arguments to \&\fBAuthorizedPrincipalsCommand\fR accept the tokens described in the \fI\s-1TOKENS\s0\fR section. If no arguments are specified then the username of the target user is used. .PP The program should produce on standard output zero or more lines of \&\fBAuthorizedPrincipalsFile\fR output. If either \&\fBAuthorizedPrincipalsCommand\fR or \&\fBAuthorizedPrincipalsFile\fR is specified, then certificates offered by the client for authentication must contain a principal that is listed. By default, no \&\fBAuthorizedPrincipalsCommand\fR is run. \fI Optional. Type uniline. \fR .SS "AuthorizedPrincipalsCommandUser" .IX Subsection "AuthorizedPrincipalsCommandUser" Specifies the user under whose account the \fBAuthorizedPrincipalsCommand\fR is run. It is recommended to use a dedicated user that has no other role on the host than running authorized principals commands. If \&\fBAuthorizedPrincipalsCommand\fR is specified but \&\fBAuthorizedPrincipalsCommandUser\fR is not, then \fBsshd\fR\|(8) will refuse to start. \fI Optional. Type uniline. \fR .SS "AuthorizedPrincipalsFile" .IX Subsection "AuthorizedPrincipalsFile" Specifies a file that lists principal names that are accepted for certificate authentication. When using certificates signed by a key listed in \fBTrustedUserCAKeys\fR, this file lists names, one of which must appear in the certificate for it to be accepted for authentication. Names are listed one per line preceded by key options (as described in \fI\s-1AUTHORIZED_KEYS FILE FORMAT\s0\fR in \fBsshd\fR\|(8)). Empty lines and comments starting with '#' are ignored. .PP Arguments to \&\fBAuthorizedPrincipalsFile\fR accept the tokens described in the \fI\s-1TOKENS\s0\fR section. After expansion, \&\fBAuthorizedPrincipalsFile\fR is taken to be an absolute path or one relative to the user's home directory. The default is \fBnone\fR, i.e. not to use a principals file X in this case, the username of the user must appear in a certificate's principals list for it to be accepted. .PP Note that \&\fBAuthorizedPrincipalsFile\fR is only used when authentication proceeds using a \s-1CA\s0 listed in \&\fBTrustedUserCAKeys\fR and is not consulted for certification authorities trusted via \&\fI~/.ssh/authorized_keys\fR, though the \fBprincipals=\fR key option offers a similar facility (see \fBsshd\fR\|(8) for details). \fI Optional. Type uniline. \fR .IP "upstream_default value :" 4 .IX Item "upstream_default value :" none .SS "Banner" .IX Subsection "Banner" The contents of the specified file are sent to the remote user before authentication is allowed. If the argument is \fBnone\fR then no banner is displayed. By default, no banner is displayed. \fI Optional. Type uniline. \fR .SS "ChrootDirectory" .IX Subsection "ChrootDirectory" Specifies the pathname of a directory to \fBchroot\fR\|(2) to after authentication. At session startup \fBsshd\fR\|(8) checks that all components of the pathname are root-owned directories which are not writable by any other user or group. After the chroot, \fBsshd\fR\|(8) changes the working directory to the user's home directory. Arguments to \fBChrootDirectory\fR accept the tokens described in the \fI\s-1TOKENS\s0\fR section. .PP The \&\fBChrootDirectory\fR must contain the necessary files and directories to support the user's session. For an interactive session this requires at least a shell, typically \fBsh\fR\|(1), and basic \fI/dev\fR nodes such as \&\fBnull\fR\|(4), \fBzero\fR\|(4), \fBstdin\fR\|(4), \fBstdout\fR\|(4), \fBstderr\fR\|(4), and \fBtty\fR\|(4) devices. For file transfer sessions using \s-1SFTP\s0 no additional configuration of the environment is necessary if the in-process sftp-server is used, though sessions which use logging may require \fI/dev/log\fR inside the chroot directory on some operating systems (see \fBsftp\-server\fR\|(8) for details). .PP For safety, it is very important that the directory hierarchy be prevented from modification by other processes on the system (especially those outside the jail). Misconfiguration can lead to unsafe environments which \fBsshd\fR\|(8) cannot detect. .PP The default is \&\fBnone\fR, indicating not to \fBchroot\fR\|(2). \fI Optional. Type uniline. \fR .IP "upstream_default value :" 4 .IX Item "upstream_default value :" none .SS "ClientAliveCountMax" .IX Subsection "ClientAliveCountMax" Sets the number of client alive messages which may be sent without \fBsshd\fR\|(8) receiving any messages back from the client. If this threshold is reached while client alive messages are being sent, sshd will disconnect the client, terminating the session. It is important to note that the use of client alive messages is very different from \fBTCPKeepAlive\fR. The client alive messages are sent through the encrypted channel and therefore will not be spoofable. The \s-1TCP\s0 keepalive option enabled by \fBTCPKeepAlive\fR is spoofable. The client alive mechanism is valuable when the client or server depend on knowing when a connection has become unresponsive. .PP The default value is 3. If \fBClientAliveInterval\fR is set to 15, and \&\fBClientAliveCountMax\fR is left at the default, unresponsive \s-1SSH\s0 clients will be disconnected after approximately 45 seconds. Setting a zero \&\fBClientAliveCountMax\fR disables connection termination. \fI Optional. Type integer. \fR .IP "upstream_default value :" 4 .IX Item "upstream_default value :" 3 .SS "ClientAliveInterval" .IX Subsection "ClientAliveInterval" Sets a timeout interval in seconds after which if no data has been received from the client, \fBsshd\fR\|(8) will send a message through the encrypted channel to request a response from the client. The default is 0, indicating that these messages will not be sent to the client. \fI Optional. Type integer. \fR .IP "upstream_default value :" 4 .IX Item "upstream_default value :" 0 .SS "DenyGroups" .IX Subsection "DenyGroups" This keyword can be followed by a list of group name patterns, separated by spaces. Login is disallowed for users whose primary group or supplementary group list matches one of the patterns. Only group names are valid; a numerical group \s-1ID\s0 is not recognized. By default, login is allowed for all groups. The allow/deny groups directives are processed in the following order: \&\fBDenyGroups\fR, \fBAllowGroups\fR. .PP See \s-1PATTERNS\s0 in \&\fBssh_config\fR\|(5) for more information on patterns. \fI Optional.

Type list of uniline. \fR .SS "ForceCommand" .IX Subsection "ForceCommand" Forces the execution of the command specified by \fBForceCommand\fR, ignoring any command supplied by the client and \fI~/.ssh/rc\fR if present. The command is invoked by using the user's login shell with the \-c option. This applies to shell, command, or subsystem execution. It is most useful inside a \&\fBMatch\fR block. The command originally supplied by the client is available in the \s-1SSH_ORIGINAL_COMMAND\s0 environment variable. Specifying a command of \fBinternal-sftp\fR will force the use of an in-process \s-1SFTP\s0 server that requires no support files when used with \fBChrootDirectory\fR. The default is \fBnone\fR. \fI Optional. Type uniline. \fR .IP "upstream_default value :" 4 .IX Item "upstream_default value :" none .SS "GatewayPorts" .IX Subsection "GatewayPorts" Specifies whether remote hosts are allowed to connect to ports forwarded for the client. By default, \fBsshd\fR\|(8) binds remote port forwardings to the loopback address. This prevents other remote hosts from connecting to forwarded ports. \fBGatewayPorts\fR can be used to specify that sshd should allow remote port forwardings to bind to non-loopback addresses, thus allowing other hosts to connect. The argument may be \fBno\fR to force remote port forwardings to be available to the local host only, \fByes\fR to force remote port forwardings to bind to the wildcard address, or \fBclientspecified\fR to allow the client to select the address to which the forwarding is bound.

The first argument is specified in bytes and may have a suffix of 'K', 'M', or 'G' to indicate Kilobytes, Megabytes, or Gigabytes, respectively. The default is between '1G' and \&'4G', depending on the cipher. The optional second value is specified in seconds and may use any of the units documented in the \fI\s-1TIME FORMATS\s0\fR section. The default value for \fBRekeyLimit\fR is \fBdefault none\fR, 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. \fI Optional. Type uniline. \fR .SS "RevokedKeys" .IX Subsection "RevokedKeys" Specifies revoked public keys file, or \fBnone\fR to not use one. Keys listed in this file will be refused for public key authentication. Note that if this file is not readable, then public key authentication will be refused for all users. Keys may be specified as a text file, listing one public key per line, or as an OpenSSH Key Revocation List (\s-1KRL\s0) as generated by \&\fBssh\-keygen\fR\|(1). For more information on KRLs, see the \s-1KEY REVOCATION LISTS\s0 section in \fBssh\-keygen\fR\|(1). \fI Optional.

The environment value may be quoted (e.g. if it contains whitespace characters). Environment variables set by \&\fBSetEnv\fR override the default environment and any variables specified by the user via \fBAcceptEnv\fR or \&\fBPermitUserEnvironment\fR. \fI Optional. Type uniline. \fR .SS "StreamLocalBindMask" .IX Subsection "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. .PP 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. \fI Optional. Type uniline. \fR .SS "StreamLocalBindUnlink" .IX Subsection "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 \fBStreamLocalBindUnlink\fR is not enabled, \fBsshd\fR 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. .PP The argument must be \fByes\fR or \fBno\fR. The default is \&\fBno\fR. \fI Optional.

Keys are listed one per line; empty lines and comments starting with '#' are allowed. If a certificate is presented for authentication and has its signing \s-1CA\s0 key listed in this file, then it may be used for authentication for any user listed in the certificate's principals list. Note that certificates that lack a list of principals will not be permitted for authentication using \fBTrustedUserCAKeys\fR.

This prevents sshd from interfering with real X11 servers. The default is 10. \fI Optional. Type uniline. \fR .SS "X11Forwarding" .IX Subsection "X11Forwarding" Specifies whether X11 forwarding is permitted. The argument must be \fByes\fR or \&\fBno\fR. The default is \fBno\fR. .PP When X11 forwarding is enabled, there may be additional exposure to the server and to client displays if the \fBsshd\fR\|(8) proxy display is configured to listen on the wildcard address (see \&\fBX11UseLocalhost\fR), though this is not the default. Additionally, the authentication spoofing and authentication data verification and substitution occur on the client side. The security risk of using X11 forwarding is that the client's X11 display server may be exposed to attack when the \s-1SSH\s0 client requests forwarding (see the warnings for \fBForwardX11\fR in \fBssh_config\fR\|(5)). A system administrator may have a stance in which they want to protect clients that may expose themselves to attack by unwittingly requesting X11 forwarding, which can warrant a \&\fBno\fR setting. .PP Note that disabling X11 forwarding does not prevent users from forwarding X11 traffic, as users can always install their own forwarders. \fI Optional. Type boolean. \fR .IP "upstream_default value :" 4 .IX Item "upstream_default value :" no .SS "X11UseLocalhost" .IX Subsection "X11UseLocalhost" Specifies whether \fBsshd\fR\|(8) should bind the X11 forwarding server to the loopback address or to the wildcard address. By default, sshd binds the forwarding server to the loopback address and sets the hostname part of the \s-1DISPLAY\s0 environment variable to \&\fBlocalhost\fR. This prevents remote hosts from connecting to the proxy display. However, some older X11 clients may not function with this configuration. \fBX11UseLocalhost\fR may be set to \fBno\fR to specify that the forwarding server should be bound to the wildcard address.
