.SS "AcceptEnv"
.IX Subsection "AcceptEnv"
Specifies what environment variables sent by the client will be copied into the
session's \fBenviron\fR\|(7). See \fBSendEnv\fR and \fBSetEnv\fR in ssh_config5 for how to
configure the client. The \fB\s-1TERM\s0\fR environment variable is always accepted
whenever the client requests a pseudo-terminal as it is required by the
protocol. Variables are specified by name, which may contain the wildcard
characters '*' and '?' Multiple environment variables may be separated by
whitespace or spread across multiple \fBAcceptEnv\fR directives. Be warned that
some environment variables could be used to bypass restricted user
environments. For this reason, care should be taken in the use of this
directive. The default is not to accept any environment variables. \fI Optional. Type list of uniline.  \fR
.SS "AllowAgentForwarding"
.IX Subsection "AllowAgentForwarding"
Specifies whether ssh\-agent1 forwarding is permitted. The default is \fByes\fR

.SS "AllowGroups"
.IX Subsection "AllowGroups"
This keyword can be followed by a list of group name patterns, separated by
spaces. If specified, login is allowed only 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 ssh_config5 for more information on patterns. This keyword may
appear multiple times in \fBsshd_config\fR with each instance appending to the

.SS "AllowStreamLocalForwarding"
.IX Subsection "AllowStreamLocalForwarding"
Specifies whether StreamLocal (Unix-domain socket) forwarding is permitted. The
available options are \fByes\fR (the default) or \fBall\fR to allow StreamLocal
forwarding, \fBno\fR to prevent all StreamLocal forwarding, \fBlocal\fR to allow
local (from the perspective of \fBssh\fR\|(1)) forwarding only or \fBremote\fR to allow
remote forwarding only. Note that disabling StreamLocal forwarding does not
improve security unless users are also denied shell access, as they can always
install their own forwarders. \fI Optional. Type enum. choice: 'all', 'local', 'no', 'remote', 'yes'.  \fR

Specifies whether \s-1TCP\s0 forwarding is permitted. The available options are \fByes\fR
(the default) or \fBall\fR to allow \s-1TCP\s0 forwarding, \fBno\fR to prevent all \s-1TCP\s0
forwarding, \fBlocal\fR to allow local (from the perspective of \fBssh\fR\|(1))
forwarding only or \fBremote\fR to allow remote forwarding only. Note that

.SS "AllowUsers"
.IX Subsection "AllowUsers"
This keyword can be followed by a list of user name patterns, separated by
spaces. If specified, login is allowed only for user names that match one of
the patterns. Only user names are valid; a numerical user \s-1ID\s0 is not recognized.
By default, login is allowed for all users. If the pattern takes the form
USER@HOST then \s-1USER\s0 and \s-1HOST\s0 are separately checked, restricting logins to
particular users from particular hosts. \s-1HOST\s0 criteria may additionally contain
addresses to match in \s-1CIDR\s0 address/masklen format. The allow/deny users
directives are processed in the following order: \fBDenyUsers\fR \fBAllowUsers\fR
.PP
See \s-1PATTERNS\s0 in ssh_config5 for more information on patterns. This keyword may
appear multiple times in \fBsshd_config\fR with each instance appending to the
list. \fI Optional. 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, Qq publickey, password publickey, keyboard-interactive 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, Qq keyboard\-interactive:bsdauth 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, Qq publickey, publickey 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: Qq gssapi-with-mic , Qq hostbased ,
Qq keyboard-interactive , Qq none (used for access to password-less accounts
when \fBPermitEmptyPasswords\fR is enabled), Qq password and Qq publickey . \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. Type uniline.  \fR
.SS "AuthorizedKeysFile"
.IX Subsection "AuthorizedKeysFile"
Specifies the file that contains the public keys used for user authentication.
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 Qq
\&.ssh/authorized_keys .ssh/authorized_keys2 . \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 \- 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 ~/.ssh/authorized_keys 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 "CASignatureAlgorithms"
.IX Subsection "CASignatureAlgorithms"
Specifies which algorithms are allowed for signing of certificates by
certificate authorities (CAs). The default is: ssh\-ed25519,
ecdsa\-sha2\-nistp256, ecdsa\-sha2\-nistp384, ecdsa\-sha2\-nistp521,
sk\-ssh\-ed25519@openssh.com, sk\-ecdsa\-sha2\-nistp256@openssh.com, rsa\-sha2\-512,
rsa\-sha2\-256
.PP
If the specified list begins with a '+' character, then the specified
algorithms will be appended to the default set instead of replacing them. If
the specified list begins with a '\-' character, then the specified algorithms
(including wildcards) will be removed from the default set instead of replacing
them.
.PP
Certificates signed using other algorithms will not be accepted for public key
or host-based authentication. \fI Optional. Type uniline.  \fR
.SS "ChannelTimeout"
.IX Subsection "ChannelTimeout"
Specifies whether and how quickly \fBsshd\fR\|(8) should close inactive channels.
Timeouts are specified as one or more ''type=interval'' pairs separated by
whitespace, where the ''type'' must be a channel type name (as described in the
table below), optionally containing wildcard characters.
.PP
The timeout value ''interval'' is specified in seconds or may use any of the
units documented in the \fI\s-1TIME FORMATS\s0\fR section. For example, ''session:*=5m''
would cause all sessions to terminate after five minutes of inactivity.
Specifying a zero value disables the inactivity timeout.
.PP
The available channel types include:
.PP
\&\fBagent-connection\fR Open connections to ssh\-agent1. \fBdirect-tcpip ,
direct\-streamlocal@openssh.com\fR Open \s-1TCP\s0 or Unix socket (respectively)
connections that have been established from a \fBssh\fR\|(1) local forwarding, i.e.
\&\fBLocalForward\fR or \fBDynamicForward\fR \fBforwarded-tcpip ,
forwarded\-streamlocal@openssh.com\fR Open \s-1TCP\s0 or Unix socket (respectively)
connections that have been established to a \fBsshd\fR\|(8) listening on behalf of a
\&\fBssh\fR\|(1) remote forwarding, i.e. \fBRemoteForward\fR \fBsession:command\fR Command
execution sessions. \fBsession:shell\fR Interactive shell sessions.
\&\fBsession:subsystem:...\fR Subsystem sessions, e.g. for \fBsftp\fR\|(1), which could
be identified as \fBsession:subsystem:sftp\fR \fBx11\-connection\fR Open X11
forwarding sessions.
.PP
Note that in all the above cases, terminating an inactive session does not
guarantee to remove all resources associated with the session, e.g. shell
processes or X11 clients relating to the session may continue to execute.
.PP
Moreover, terminating an inactive channel or session does not necessarily close
the \s-1SSH\s0 connection, nor does it prevent a client from requesting another
channel of the same type. In particular, expiring an inactive forwarding
session does not prevent another identical forwarding from being subsequently
created. See also \fBUnusedConnectionTimeout\fR which may be used in conjunction
with this option.
.PP
The default is not to expire channels of any type for inactivity. \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 /dev 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 /dev/log inside the chroot directory on some operating
systems (see sftp\-server8 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 ssh_config5 for more information on patterns. This keyword may
appear multiple times in \fBsshd_config\fR with each instance appending to the
list. \fI Optional. Type list of uniline.  \fR
.SS "DenyUsers"
.IX Subsection "DenyUsers"
This keyword can be followed by a list of user name patterns, separated by
spaces. Login is disallowed for user names that match one of the patterns. Only
user names are valid; a numerical user \s-1ID\s0 is not recognized. By default, login
is allowed for all users. If the pattern takes the form USER@HOST then \s-1USER\s0 and
\&\s-1HOST\s0 are separately checked, restricting logins to particular users from
particular hosts. \s-1HOST\s0 criteria may additionally contain addresses to match in
\&\s-1CIDR\s0 address/masklen format. The allow/deny users directives are processed in
the following order: \fBDenyUsers\fR \fBAllowUsers\fR
.PP
See \s-1PATTERNS\s0 in ssh_config5 for more information on patterns. This keyword may
appear multiple times in \fBsshd_config\fR with each instance appending to the

.SS "DisableForwarding"
.IX Subsection "DisableForwarding"
Disables all forwarding features, including X11, ssh\-agent1, \s-1TCP\s0 and
StreamLocal. This option overrides all other forwarding-related options and may
simplify restricted configurations. \fI Optional. Type uniline.  \fR
.SS "ExposeAuthInfo"
.IX Subsection "ExposeAuthInfo"
Writes a temporary file containing a list of authentication methods and public
credentials (e.g. keys) used to authenticate the user. The location of the file
is exposed to the user session through the \fB\s-1SSH_USER_AUTH\s0\fR environment
variable. The default is \fBno\fR \fI Optional. Type boolean.  \fR
.IP "upstream_default value :" 4
.IX Item "upstream_default value :"
no
.SS "ForceCommand"
.IX Subsection "ForceCommand"
Forces the execution of the command specified by \fBForceCommand\fR ignoring any
command supplied by the client and ~/.ssh/rc 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
\&\fB\s-1SSH_ORIGINAL_COMMAND\s0\fR 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

subsystem sessions, connected network, socket, agent or X11 forwardings.
Forwarding listeners, such as those from the \fBssh\fR\|(1) \-\fBR\fR flag, are not
considered as open channels and do not prevent the timeout. The timeout value

.PP
Note that this timeout starts when the client connection completes user
authentication but before the client has an opportunity to open any channels.
Caution should be used when using short timeout values, as they may not provide

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 ssh_config5). 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.
