DESCRIPTION
Ssh (Secure Shell) a program for logging into a remote
machine and for executing commands in a remote machine. It
is intended to replace rlogin and rsh, and provide secure
encrypted communications between two untrusted hosts over an
insecure network. X11 connections and arbitrary TCP/IP
ports can also be forwarded over the secure channel.
Ssh connects and logs into the specified hostname. The user
must prove his/her identity to the remote machine using one
of several methods.
First, if the machine the user logs in from is listed in
/etc/hosts.equiv or /etc/shosts.equiv on the remote machine,
and the user names are the same on both sides, the user is
immediately permitted to log in. Second, if .rhosts or
.shosts exists in the user's home directory on the remote
machine and contains a line containing the name of the
client machine and the name of the user on that machine, the
user is permitted to log in. This form of authentication
alone is normally not allowed by the server because it is
not secure.
The second (and primary) authentication method is the rhosts
or hosts.equiv method combined with RSA-based host authenti-
cation. It means that if the login would be permitted by
.rhosts, .shosts, /etc/hosts.equiv, or /etc/shosts.equiv,
and additionally it can verify the client's host key (see
$HOME/.ssh/known_hosts and /etc/ssh_known_hosts in the FILES
section), only then login is permitted. This authentication
method closes security holes due to IP spoofing, DNS spoof-
ing 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.]
As a third authentication method, ssh supports RSA based
authentication. The scheme is based on public-key
cryptography: there are cryptosystems where encryption and
decryption are done using separate keys, and it is not pos-
sible to derive the decryption key from the encryption key.
RSA is one such system. 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. The file $HOME/.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 server
checks if this key is permitted, and if so, sends the user
(actually the ssh program running on behalf of the user) a
challenge, a random number, encrypted by the user's public
key. The challenge can only be decrypted using the proper
private key. The user's client then decrypts the challenge
using the private key, proving that he/she knows the private
key but without disclosing it to the server.
Ssh implements the RSA authentication protocol automati-
cally. The user creates his/her RSA key pair by running
ssh-keygen(1). This stores the private key in .ssh/identity
and the public key in .ssh/identity.pub in the user's home
directory. The user should then copy the identity.pub to
.ssh/authorized_keys in his/her home directory on the remote
machine (the authorized_keys file corresponds to the conven-
tional .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. RSA authentication is much
more secure than rhosts authentication.
The most convenient way to use RSA authentication may be
with an authentication agent. See ssh-agent(1) for more
information.
As a fourth authentication method, ssh supports authentica-
tion through TIS authentication server. The idea is that ssh
asks TIS authsrv(8) to authenticate the user. Sometime,
usernames in the TIS database cannot be the same as the
local users. This can be the case if the user authenticates
itself with a smartcard or a Digipass. In that case, the
username in the database is usually known as the serial
number of the authentification device. The file
/etc/sshd_tis.map contains the mapping between local users
and their corresponding name in the TIS database. If the
file does not exist or the user is not found, the
corresponding name in the TIS database is supposed to be the
same.
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.
When the user's identity has been accepted by the server,
the server either executes the given command, or logs into
the machine and gives the user a normal shell on the remote
machine. All communication with the remote command or shell
will be automatically encrypted.
If a pseudo-terminal has been allocated (normal login ses-
sion), the user can disconnect with "~.", and suspend ssh
with "~^Z". All forwarded connections can be listed with
"~#", and if the session blocks waiting for forwarded X11 or
TCP/IP connections to terminate, it can be backgrounded with
"~&" (this should not be used while the user shell is
active, as it can cause the shell to hang). All available
escapes can be listed with "~?".
A single tilde character can be sent as "~~" (or by follow-
ing the tilde by a character other than those described
above). The escape character must always follow a newline
to be interpreted as special. The escape character can be
changed in configuration files or on the command line.
If no pseudo tty has been allocated, the session is tran-
sparent 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 in on the
remote machine exists and all X11 and TCP/IP connections
have been closed. The exit status of the remote program is
returned as the exit status of ssh.
If 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 pro-
grams 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 user is using an authentication agent, the connection
to the agent is automatically forwarded to the remote side
unless disabled on command line or in a configuration file.
Forwarding of arbitrary TCP/IP connections over the secure
channel can be specified either on command line or in a con-
figuration file. One possible application of TCP/IP for-
warding is a secure connection to an electronic purse;
another is going trough firewalls.
Ssh automatically maintains and checks a database containing
RSA-based identifications for all hosts it has ever been
used with. The database is stored in .ssh/known_hosts in
the user's home directory. Additionally, the file
/etc/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 a
trojan horse from getting the user's password. Another pur-
pose of this mechanism is to prevent man-in-the-middle
attacks which could otherwise be used to circumvent the
encryption. The StrictHostKeyChecking option (see below)
can be used to prevent logins to machines whose host key is
not known or has changed.
OPTIONS
-a Disables forwarding of the authentication agent connec-
tion. This may also be specified on a per-host basis
in the configuration file.
-c idea|des|3des|blowfish|arcfour|none
Selects the cipher to use for encrypting the session.
idea is used by default. It is believed to be secure.
des is the data encryption standard, but is breakable
by governments, large corporations, and major criminal
organizations. 3des (triple-des) is encrypt-decrypt-
encrypt triple with three different keys. It is
presumably more secure than DES. It is used as default
if both sites do not support IDEA. blowfish is an
encryption algorithm invented by Bruce Schneier. It
uses 128 bit keys. arcfour is an algorithm published
in the Usenet News in 1995. This algorithm is believed
to be equivalent with the RC4 cipher from RSA Data
Security (RC4 is a trademark of RSA Data Security).
This is the fastest algorithm currently supported.
none disables encryption entirely; it is only intended
for debugging, and it renders the connection insecure.
-e ch|^ch|none
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 fol-
lowed 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 Requests ssh to go to background after authentication
is done and forwardings have been established. This is
useful if ssh is going to ask for passwords or
passphrases, but the user wants it in the background.
This may also be useful in scripts. This implies -n.
The recommended way to start X11 programs at a remote
site is with something like "ssh -f host xterm".
-i identity_file
Selects the file from which the identity (private key)
for RSA authentication is read. Default is
.ssh/identity in the user's home directory. 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 confi-
guration files).
-k Disables forwarding of the kerberos tickets. This may
also be specified on a per-host basis in the configura-
tion file.
-l login_name
Specifies the user to log in as on the remote machine.
This may also be specified on a per-host basis in the
configuration file.
-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 in 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 forwarded 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 'option'
Can be used to give options in the format used in the
config file. This is useful for specifying options for
which there is no separate command-line flag. The
option has the same format as a line in the configura-
tion file.
-p port
Port to connect to on the remote host. This can be
specified on a per-host basis in the configuration
file.
-q Quiet mode. Causes all warning and diagnostic messages
to be suppressed. Only fatal errors are displayed.
-P Use non privileged port. With this you cannot use
rhosts or rsarhosts authentications, but it can be used
to bypass some firewalls that dont allow privileged
source ports to pass.
-t Force pseudo-tty allocation. This can be used to exe-
cute arbitary screen-based programs on a remote
machine, which can be very useful e.g. when implement-
ing menu services.
-v Verbose mode. Causes ssh to print debugging messages
about its progress. This is helpful in debugging con-
nection, authentication, and configuration problems.
-V Print only version number and exit.
-g Allows remote hosts to connect local port forwarding
ports. The default is that only localhost may connect
to locally binded ports.
-x Disables X11 forwarding. This can also be specified on
a per-host basis in a configuration file.
-C Requests compression of all data (including stdin,
stdout, stderr, and data for forwarded X11 and TCP/IP
connections). The compression algorithm is the same
used by gzip, and the "level" can be controlled by the
CompressionLevel option (see below). Compression is
desirable on modem lines and other slow connections,
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 Compress option below.
-L port:host:hostport
Specifies that the given port on the local (client)
host is to be forwarded to the given host and port on
the remote side. This works by allocating a socket to
listen to port on the local side, and whenever a con-
nection is made to this port, the connection is
forwarded over the secure channel, and a connection is
made to host:hostport from the remote machine. Port
forwardings can also be specified in the configuration
file. Only root can forward privileged ports.
-R port:host:hostport
Specifies that the given port on the remote (server)
host is to be forwarded to the given host and port on
the local side. This works by allocating a socket to
listen to port on the remote side, and whenever a con-
nection is made to this port, the connection is for-
warded over the secure channel, and a connection is
made to host:hostport from the local machine. Port
forwardings can also be specified in the configuration
file. Privileged ports can be forwarded only when log-
ging in as root on the remote machine.
CONFIGURATION FILES
Ssh obtains configuration data from the following sources
(in this order): command line options, user's configuration
file ($HOME/.ssh/config), and system-wide configuration file
(/etc/ssh_config). For each parameter, the first obtained
value will be used. The configuration files contain sec-
tions bracketed by "Host" specifications, and that section
is only applied for hosts that match one of the patterns
given in the specification. The matched host name is the
one given on the command line.
Since the first obtained value for each parameter is used,
more host-specific declarations should be given near the
beginning of the file, and general defaults at the end.
The configuration file has the following format:
Empty lines and lines starting with '#' are comments.
Otherwise a line is of the format "keyword arguments"
or "keyword = arguments". The possible keywords and
their meanings are as follows (note that the configura-
tion files are case-sensitive, but keywords are case-
insensitive):
Host
Restricts the following declarations (up to the next
Host keyword) to be only for those hosts that match one
of the patterns given after the keyword. '*' and '?'
can be as wildcards in the patterns. A single '*' as a
pattern can be used to provide global defaults for all
hosts. The host is the hostname argument given on the
command line (i.e., the name is not converted to a
canonicalized host name before matching).
BatchMode
If set to "yes", passphrase/password querying will be
disabled. This option is useful in scripts and other
batch jobs where you have no user to supply the pass-
word. The argument must be "yes" or "no".
Cipher
Specifies the cipher to use for encrypting the session.
Currently, idea, des, 3des, blowfish, arcfour, and none
are supported. The default is "idea" (or "3des" if
"idea" is not supported by both hosts). Using "none"
(no encryption) is intended only for debugging, and
will render the connection insecure.
ClearAllForwardings
Clears all forwardings after reading all config files
and parsing command line. This is usefull to disable
forwardings in config file when you want to make second
connection to host having forwardings in config file.
Scp sets this on by default so it will not fail even if
you have some forwardings set in config file.
Compression
Specifies whether to use compression. The argument
must be "yes" or "no".
CompressionLevel
Specifies the compression level to use if compression
is enable. The argument must be an integer from 1
(fast) to 9 (slow, best). The default level is 6,
which is good for most applications. The meaning of
the values is the same as in GNU GZIP.
ConnectionAttempts
Specifies the number of tries (one per second) to make
before falling back to rsh or exiting. The argument
must be an integer. This may be useful in scripts if
the connection sometimes fails.
EscapeChar
Sets the escape character (default: ~). The escape
character can also be set on the command line. The
argument should be a single character, '^' followed by
a letter, or ``none'' to disable the escape character
entirely (making the connection transparent for binary
data).
FallBackToRsh
Specifies that if connecting via ssh fails due to a
connection refused error (there is no sshd listening on
the remote host), rsh should automatically be used
instead (after a suitable warning about the session
being unencrypted). The argument must be "yes" or
"no".
ForwardAgent
Specifies whether the connection to the authentication
agent (if any) will be forwarded to the remote machine.
The argument must be "yes" or "no".
ForwardX11
Specifies whether X11 connections will be automatically
redirected over the secure channel and DISPLAY set.
The argument must be "yes" or "no".
GatewayPorts
Specifies that also remote hosts may connect to locally
forwarded ports. The argument must be "yes" or "no".
GlobalKnownHostsFile
Specifies a file to use instead of
/etc/ssh_known_hosts.
HostName
Specifies the real host name to log into. This can be
used to specify nicnames or abbreviations for hosts.
Default is the name given on the command line. Numeric
IP addresses are also permitted (both on the command
line and in HostName specifications).
IdentityFile
Specifies the file from which the user's RSA authenti-
cation identity is read (default .ssh/identity in the
user's home directory). Additionally, any identities
represented by the authentication agent will be used
for authentication. The file name may use the tilde
syntax to refer to a user's home directory. It is pos-
sible to have multiple identity files specified in
configuration files; all these identities will be tried
in sequence.
KeepAlive
Specifies whether the system should send keepalive mes-
sages to the other side. If they are sent, death of
the connection or crash of one of the machines will be
properly noticed. However, this means that connections
will die if the route is down temporarily, and some
people find it annoying.
The default is "yes" (to send keepalives), and the
client will notice if the network goes down or the
remote host dies. This is important in scripts, and
many users want it too.
To disable keepalives, the value should be set to "no"
in both the server and the client configuration files.
KerberosAuthentication
Specifies whether Kerberos V5 authentication will be
used.
KerberosTgtPassing
Specifies whether a Kerberos V5 TGT will be forwarded
to the server.
LocalForward
Specifies that a TCP/IP port on the local machine be
forwarded over the secure channel to given host:port
from the remote machine. The first argument must be a
port number, and the second must be host:port. Multi-
ple forwardings may be specified, and additional for-
wardings can be given on the command line. Only the
root can forward privileged ports.
NumberOfPasswordPrompts
Specifies number of password prompts before giving up.
The argument to must be integer. Note that server also
limits number of attempts (currently 5), so setting
this larger doesn't have any effect. Default value is
one.
PasswordAuthentication
Specifies whether to use password authentication. The
argument to this keyword must be "yes" or "no".
PasswordPromptHost
Specifies whether to include the remote host name in
the password prompt. The argument to this keyword must
be "yes" or "no".
PasswordPromptLogin
Specifies whether to include the remote login name in
the password prompt. The argument to this keyword must
be "yes" or "no".
Port Specifies the port number to connect on the remote
host. Default is 22.
ProxyCommand
Specifies the command to use to connect to the server.
The command string extends to the end of the line, and
is executed with /bin/sh. In the command string, %h
will be substituted by the host name to connect and %p
by the port. The command can be basically anything,
and should read from its stdin and write to its stdout.
It should eventually connect an sshd server running on
some machine, or execute "sshd -i" somewhere. Host key
management will be done using the HostName of the host
being connected (defaulting to the name typed by the
user).
Note that ssh can also be configured to support the
SOCKS system using the --with-socks4 or --with-socks5
compile-time configuration option.
RemoteForward
Specifies that a TCP/IP port on the remote machine be
forwarded over the secure channel to given host:port
from the local machine. The first argument must be a
port number, and the second must be host:port. Multi-
ple forwardings may be specified, and additional for-
wardings can be given on the command line. Only the
root can forward privileged ports.
RhostsAuthentication
Specifies whether to try rhosts based authentication.
Note that this declaration only affects the client side
and has no effect whatsoever on security. Disabling
rhosts authentication may reduce authentication time on
slow connections when rhosts authentication is not
used. Most servers do not permit RhostsAuthentication
because it is not secure (see RhostsRSAAuthentication).
The argument to this keyword must be "yes" or "no".
RhostsRSAAuthentication
Specifies whether to try rhosts based authentication
with RSA host authentication. This is the primary
authentication method for most sites. The argument
must be "yes" or "no".
RSAAuthentication
Specifies whether to try RSA authentication. The argu-
ment to this keyword must be "yes" or "no". RSA
authentication will only be attempted if the identity
file exists, or an authentication agent is running.
StrictHostKeyChecking
If this flag is set to "yes", ssh ssh will never
automatically add host keys to the
$HOME/.ssh/known_hosts file, and refuses to connect
hosts whose host key has changed. This provides max-
imum protection against trojan horse attacks. However,
it can be somewhat annoying if you don't have good
/etc/ssh_known_hosts files installed and frequently
connect new hosts. Basically this option forces the
user to manually add any new hosts. Normally this
option is set to "ask", and new hosts will automati-
cally be added to the known host files after you have
confirmed you really want to do that. If this is set to
"no" then new host will automatically be added to the
known host files. The host keys of known hosts will be
verified automatically in either case.
The argument must be "yes", "no" or "ask".
TISAuthentication
Specifies whether to try TIS authentication. The argu-
ment to this keyword must be "yes" or "no".
UsePrivilegedPort
Specifies whether to use privileged port when connect-
ing to other end. The default is yes if rhosts or
rsarhosts authentications are enabled.
User Specifies the user to log in as. This can be useful if
you have a different user name in different machines.
This saves the trouble of having to remember to give
the user name on the command line.
UserKnownHostsFile
Specifies a file to use instead of
$HOME/.ssh/known_hosts.
UseRsh
Specifies that rlogin/rsh should be used for this host.
It is possible that the host does not at all support
the ssh protocol. This causes ssh to immediately exec
rsh. All other options (except HostName) are ignored if
this has been specified. The argument must be "yes" or
"no".
XAuthLocation
Specifies the path to xauth program.
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 >=
1. Ssh uses this special value to forward X11 connec-
tions over the secure channel. The user should nor-
mally 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 point the user's mailbox.
PATH Set to the default PATH, as specified when compiling
ssh or, on some systems, /etc/environment or
/etc/default/login.
SSH_AUTH_SOCK
if exists, is used to indicate the path of a unix-
domain socket used to communicate with the
authentication agent (or its local representative).
SSH_CLIENT
Identifies the client end of the connection. The vari-
able contains three space-separated values: client ip-
address, client port number, and server port number.
SSH_ORIGINAL_COMMAND
This will be the original command line of given by pro-
tocol if forced command is run. It can be used to fetch
arguments etc from the other end.
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 The timezone variable is set to indicate the present
timezone if it was set when the daemon was started
(e.i., the daemon passes the value on to new connec-
tions).
USER Set to the name of the user logging in.
Additionally, ssh reads /etc/environment and
$HOME/.ssh/environment, and adds lines of the format
VARNAME=value to the environment. Some systems may have
still additional mechanisms for setting up the environment,
such as /etc/default/login on Solaris.
FILES
$HOME/.ssh/known_hosts
Records host keys for all hosts the user has logged
into (that are not in /etc/ssh_known_hosts). See sshd
manual page.
$HOME/.ssh/random_seed
Used for seeding the random number generator. This
file contains sensitive data and should read/write for
the user and not accessible for others. This file is
created the first time the program is run and updated
automatically. The user should never need to read or
modify this file.
$HOME/.ssh/identity
Contains the RSA authentication identity of the user.
This file contains sensitive data and should be read-
able by the user but not accessible by others. It is
possible to specify a passphrase when generating the
key; the passphrase will be used to encrypt the sensi-
tive part of this file using IDEA.
$HOME/.ssh/identity.pub
Contains the public key for authentication (public part
of the identity file in human-readable form). The con-
tents of this file should be added to
$HOME/.ssh/authorized_keys on all machines where you
wish to log in using RSA authentication. This file is
not sensitive and can (but need not) be readable by
anyone. This file is never used automatically and is
not necessary; it is only provided for the convenience
of the user.
$HOME/.ssh/config
This is the per-user configuration file. The format of
this file is described above. This file is used by the
ssh client. This file does not usually contain any
sensitive information, but the recommended permissions
are read/write for the user, and not accessible by oth-
ers.
$HOME/.ssh/authorized_keys
Lists the RSA keys that can be used for logging in as
this user. The format of this file is described in the
sshd manual page. In the simplest form the format is
the same as the .pub identity files (that is, each line
contains the number of bits in modulus, public
exponent, modulus, and comment fields, separated by
spaces). This file is not highly sensitive, but the
recommended permissions are read/write for the user,
and not accessible by others.
/etc/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.
This file should be world-readable. This file contains
public keys, one per line, in the following format
(fields separated by spaces): system name, number of
bits in modulus, public exponent, modulus, and optional
comment field. When different names are used for the
same machine, all such names should be listed,
separated by commas. The format is described on the
sshd manual page.
The canonical system name (as returned by name servers)
is used by sshd to verify the client host when logging
in; other names are needed because ssh does not convert
the user-supplied name to a canonical name before
checking the key, because someone with access to the
name servers would then be able to fool host authenti-
cation.
/etc/ssh_config
Systemwide configuration file. This file provides
defaults for those values that are not specified in the
user's configuration file, and for those users who do
not have a configuration file. This file must be
world-readable.
$HOME/.rhosts
This file is used in .rhosts authentication to list the
host/user pairs that are permitted to log in. (Note
that this file is also used by rlogin and rsh, which
makes using this file insecure.) Each line of the file
contains a host name (in the canonical form returned by
name servers), and then a user name on that host,
separated by a space. This file must be owned by the
user, and must not have write permissions for anyone
else. The recommended permission is read/write for the
user, and not accessible by others.
Note that by default sshd will be installed so that it
requires successful RSA host authentication before per-
mitting .rhosts authentication. If your server machine
does not have the client's host key in
/etc/ssh_known_hosts, you can store it in
$HOME/.ssh/known_hosts. The easiest way to do this is
to connect back to the client from the server machine
using ssh; this will automatically add the host key in
$HOME/.ssh/known_hosts.
$HOME/.shosts
This file is used exactly the same way as .rhosts. The
purpose for having this file is to be able to use
rhosts authentication with ssh without permitting login
with rlogin or rsh.
/etc/hosts.equiv
This file is used during .rhosts authentication. It
contains canonical hosts names, one per line (the full
format is described on the sshd manual page). If the
client host is found in this file, login is automati-
cally permitted provided client and server user names
are the same. Additionally, successful RSA host
authentication is normally required. This file should
only be writable by root.
/etc/shosts.equiv
This file is processed exactly as /etc/hosts.equiv.
This file may be useful to permit logins using ssh but
not using rsh/rlogin.

INSTALLATION
Ssh is normally installed as suid root. It needs root
privileges only for rhosts authentication (rhosts authenti-
cation requires that the connection must come from a
privileged port, and allocating such a port requires root
privileges). It also needs to be able to read
/etc/ssh_host_key to perform RSA host authentication. It is
possible to use ssh without root privileges, but rhosts
authentication will then be disabled. Ssh drops any extra
privileges immediately after the connection to the remote
host has been made.
Considerable work has been put into making ssh secure. How-
ever, if you find a security problem, please report it
immediately to <[email protected]>.
