| 52 | The file contains keyword-argument pairs, one per line. |
| 53 | Lines starting with |
| 54 | .Ql # |
| 55 | and empty lines are interpreted as comments. |

Darren Tucker | 46bc075 | 2004-05-02 22:11:30 +1000 | [diff] [blame] | 64 | .It Cm AcceptEnv |

Darren Tucker | 1e0c9bf | 2004-05-02 22:12:48 +1000 | [diff] [blame] | 73 | Note that environment passing is only supported for protocol 2. |
Darren Tucker | 46bc075 | 2004-05-02 22:11:30 +1000 | [diff] [blame] | 74 | Variables are specified by name, which may contain the wildcard characters |

Darren Tucker | 46bc075 | 2004-05-02 22:11:30 +1000 | [diff] [blame] | 83 | user environments. |
| 84 | For this reason, care should be taken in the use of this directive. |

Damien Miller | e989019 | 2008-05-19 14:59:02 +1000 | [diff] [blame] | 97 | .It Cm AllowAgentForwarding |

| 100 | forwarding is permitted. |
| 101 | The default is |
| 102 | .Dq yes . |
| 103 | Note that disabling agent forwarding does not improve security |
| 104 | unless users are also denied shell access, as they can always install |
| 105 | their own forwarders. |
Ben Lindstrom | 9f04903 | 2002-06-21 00:59:05 +0000 | [diff] [blame] | 106 | .It Cm AllowGroups |

| 109 | If specified, login is allowed only for users whose primary |
| 110 | group or supplementary group list matches one of the patterns. |
Ben Lindstrom | 9f04903 | 2002-06-21 00:59:05 +0000 | [diff] [blame] | 111 | Only group names are valid; a numerical group ID is not recognized. |

Damien Miller | aa5b3f8 | 2012-12-03 09:50:54 +1100 | [diff] [blame] | 127 | The available options are |
| 128 | .Dq yes |
| 129 | or |
| 130 | .Dq all |
| 131 | to allow TCP forwarding, |
| 132 | .Dq no |
| 133 | to prevent all TCP forwarding, |
| 134 | .Dq local |
| 135 | to allow local (from the perspective of |

Damien Miller | aa5b3f8 | 2012-12-03 09:50:54 +1100 | [diff] [blame] | 138 | .Dq remote |
| 139 | to allow remote forwarding only. |
Ben Lindstrom | 9f04903 | 2002-06-21 00:59:05 +0000 | [diff] [blame] | 140 | The default is |
| 141 | .Dq yes . |
| 142 | Note that disabling TCP forwarding does not improve security unless |
| 143 | users are also denied shell access, as they can always install their |
| 144 | own forwarders. |
Ben Lindstrom | 9f04903 | 2002-06-21 00:59:05 +0000 | [diff] [blame] | 145 | .It Cm AllowUsers |
| 146 | This keyword can be followed by a list of user name patterns, separated |
| 147 | by spaces. |
Damien Miller | 5a93add | 2003-01-24 11:34:52 +1100 | [diff] [blame] | 148 | If specified, login is allowed only for user names that |
Ben Lindstrom | 9f04903 | 2002-06-21 00:59:05 +0000 | [diff] [blame] | 149 | match one of the patterns. |
Ben Lindstrom | 9f04903 | 2002-06-21 00:59:05 +0000 | [diff] [blame] | 150 | Only user names are valid; a numerical user ID is not recognized. |
| 151 | By default, login is allowed for all users. |
| 152 | If the pattern takes the form USER@HOST then USER and HOST |
| 153 | are separately checked, restricting logins to particular |
| 154 | users from particular hosts. |
Damien Miller | ac73e51 | 2006-03-15 11:58:49 +1100 | [diff] [blame] | 155 | The allow/deny directives are processed in the following order: |

Damien Miller | a6e3f01 | 2012-11-04 23:21:40 +1100 | [diff] [blame] | 167 | .It Cm AuthenticationMethods |
| 168 | Specifies the authentication methods that must be successfully completed |
| 169 | for a user to be granted access. |
| 170 | This option must be followed by one or more comma-separated lists of |
| 171 | authentication method names. |
| 172 | Successful authentication requires completion of every method in at least |
| 173 | one of these lists. |
| 174 | .Pp |
| 175 | For example, an argument of |
| 176 | .Dq publickey,password publickey,keyboard-interactive |
| 177 | would require the user to complete public key authentication, followed by |
| 178 | either password or keyboard interactive authentication. |
| 179 | Only methods that are next in one or more lists are offered at each stage, |
| 180 | so for this example, it would not be possible to attempt password or |
| 181 | keyboard-interactive authentication before public key. |
| 182 | .Pp |
| 183 | This option is only available for SSH protocol 2 and will yield a fatal |
| 184 | error if enabled if protocol 1 is also enabled. |
| 185 | Note that each authentication method listed should also be explicitly enabled |
| 186 | in the configuration. |
| 187 | The default is not to require multiple authentication; successful completion |
| 188 | of a single authentication method is sufficient. |
Damien Miller | 09d3e12 | 2012-10-31 08:58:58 +1100 | [diff] [blame] | 189 | .It Cm AuthorizedKeysCommand |
Damien Miller | f33580e | 2012-11-04 22:22:52 +1100 | [diff] [blame] | 190 | Specifies a program to be used to look up the user's public keys. |
Damien Miller | 09d3e12 | 2012-10-31 08:58:58 +1100 | [diff] [blame] | 191 | The program will be invoked with a single argument of the username |
| 192 | being authenticated, and should produce on standard output zero or |
Damien Miller | f33580e | 2012-11-04 22:22:52 +1100 | [diff] [blame] | 193 | more lines of authorized_keys output (see |

Damien Miller | 09d3e12 | 2012-10-31 08:58:58 +1100 | [diff] [blame] | 197 | If a key supplied by AuthorizedKeysCommand does not successfully authenticate |
| 198 | and authorize the user then public key authentication continues using the usual |
| 199 | .Cm AuthorizedKeysFile |
| 200 | files. |
| 201 | By default, no AuthorizedKeysCommand is run. |
| 202 | .It Cm AuthorizedKeysCommandUser |
| 203 | Specifies the user under whose account the AuthorizedKeysCommand is run. |
Damien Miller | 09d3e12 | 2012-10-31 08:58:58 +1100 | [diff] [blame] | 204 | It is recommended to use a dedicated user that has no other role on the host |

Damien Miller | 12c150e | 2003-12-17 16:31:10 +1100 | [diff] [blame] | 1062 | .It Cm TCPKeepAlive |
| 1063 | Specifies whether the system should send TCP keepalive messages to the |
| 1064 | other side. |
| 1065 | If they are sent, death of the connection or crash of one |
| 1066 | of the machines will be properly noticed. |
| 1067 | However, this means that |
| 1068 | connections will die if the route is down temporarily, and some people |
| 1069 | find it annoying. |
| 1070 | On the other hand, if TCP keepalives are not sent, |
| 1071 | sessions may hang indefinitely on the server, leaving |

| 1073 | users and consuming server resources. |
| 1074 | .Pp |
| 1075 | The default is |
| 1076 | .Dq yes |
| 1077 | (to send TCP keepalive messages), and the server will notice |
| 1078 | if the network goes down or the client host crashes. |
| 1079 | This avoids infinitely hanging sessions. |
| 1080 | .Pp |
| 1081 | To disable TCP keepalive messages, the value should be set to |
