140.SH DESCRIPTION
141.LP
142.B make-ssh-known-hosts
143is a perl5 script that helps create the
144.I /etc/ssh_known_hosts
145file, which is used by
146.B ssh
147to contain the host keys of all publicly known hosts.
148.B Ssh
149does not normally permit login using rhosts or /etc/hosts.equiv
150authentication unless the server knows the client's host key. In
151addition, the host keys are used to prevent man-in-the-middle attacks.
152.LP
153In addition to
154.IR /etc/ssh_known_hosts ",
155.B ssh
156also uses the
157.I $HOME/.ssh/known_hosts
158file. This file, however, is intended to contain only those hosts
159that the particular user needs but are not in the global file. It is
160intended that the
161.I /etc/ssh_known_hosts
162file be maintained by the system administration, and periodically
163updated to contain the host keys for any new hosts.
164.LP
165The
166.B make-ssh-known-hosts
167program finds all the hosts in a domain by making a DNS query to the
168master domain name server of the domain. The master domain name server
169is located by searching for the SOA record of the domain from the initial
170domain name server (which can be specified with the
171.B \-\-initialdns
172option). The master domain name server can also be given directly with
173the
174.B \-\-server
175option.
176.LP
177After getting the hostname list
178.B make-ssh-known-hosts
179tries to get the public key from every host in the domain. It first
180tries to connect ssh port to check check if the host is alive, and if
181so, it tries to run the command
182.B cat /etc/ssh_host_key.pub
183on the remote machine using
184.BR ssh ".
185If the command succeeds, it knows the remote machine has
186.B ssh
187installed properly, and it then extracts the public key from the
188output, and prints the
189.B /etc/ssh_known_hosts
190entry for it to
191.BR STDOUT ". Because
192.B make-ssh-known-hosts
193is usually run before
194remote machines have /etc/ssh_known_hosts file you may have to use
195RSA-authentication to allow access to hosts.
196.LP
197If the command fails for some reason, it checks if the
198.B ssh
199client still got the public key from the remote host in the initial dialog,
200and if so, it will print a proper entry, and if
201.B \-\-notrustdaemon
202option is given comment it out.
203.LP
204.I Domain_name
205is the domain name for which the file is to be generated. By default
206.B make-ssh-known-hosts
207extracts also all subdomains of domain. Many sites will want to
208include several domains in their
209.I /etc/ssh_known_hosts
210file. The entries for each domain should be extracted separately by
211running
212.B make-ssh-known-hosts
213once for each domain. The results should then be combined to create
214the final file.
215.LP
216.I Take_regexp
217is a perl regular expression that matches the hosts to be taken from the
218domain. The data matched contains all the DNS records in the form "\|\c
219.B fieldname=value\c
220\|". The fields are separated with newline, and the perl match is made in
221multiline mode and it is case insensetive. The multiline mode means
222that you can use a regexp like "\|\c
223.B ^wks=.*telnet.*$\c
224\|" to match all hosts that have WKS (well known services) field that
225contains value "telnet".
226.LP
227.I Remove_regexp
228is similar but those hosts that match the regexp are not added (it can
229be used for example to filter out PCs and Macs using the hinfo field: "\|\c
230.B ^hinfo=.*(mac|pc)\c
231\|").
232
233.SH OPTIONS
234.TP
235.BI "\-\-initialdns " "initial_dns"\c
236.TP
237.BI "\-i " "initial_dns"\c
238\&Set the initial domain name server used to query the SOA record of the
239domain.
240
241.TP
242.BI "\-\-server " "domain_name_server"\c
243.TP
244.BI "\-se " "domain_name_server"\c
245\&Set the master domain name server of the domain. This host is used
246to query the DNS list of the domain.
247
248.TP
249.BI "\-\-subdomains " "subdomainlist"\c
250.TP
251.BI "\-su " "subdomainlist"\c
252\&Comma separated list of subdomains that are added to hostnames. For
253example, if subdomainlist is "\|\c
254.I ,foo, foo.bar, foo.bar.zappa, foo.bar.zappa.hut.fi\c
255\|" then when host foobar is added to
256.B /etc/ssh_known_hosts
257file it has aliases "\|\c
258.I foobar, foobar.foo, foobar.foo.bar, foobar.foo.bar.zappa, foobar.foo.bar.zappa.hut.fi\c
259\|". The default action is to take all subparts of the host but the
260second last on a host by host basis. (The last element is usually the
261country code, and something like
262.I foobar.foo.bar.zappa.hut
263would not make sense.)
264
265.TP
266.BI "\-\-debug " "debug_level"\c
267.TP
268.BI "\-de " "debug_level"\c
269\&Set the debug level. Default is 5, bigger values give more output.
270Using a big value (like 999) will print lots of debugging output.
271
272.TP
273.BI "\-\-timeout " "ssh_exec_timeout"\c
274.TP
275.BI "\-ti " "ssh_exec_timeout"\c
276\&Timeout when executing
277.B ssh
278command. The default is 60 seconds.
279
280.TP
281.BI "\-\-pingtimeout " "ping_timeout"\c
282.TP
283.BI "\-pi " "ping_timeout"\c
284\&Timeout when trying to ping the ssh port. The default is 3 seconds.
285
286.TP
287.BI "\-\-passwordtimeout " "timeout_when_asking_password"\c
288.TP
289.BI "\-pa " "timeout_when_asking_password"\c
290\&Timeout when asking password for ssh command. Default is that no
291passwords are queried. Use value 0 to have no timeout for password queries.
292
293.TP
294.BI "\-\-notrustdaemon"\c
295.TP
296.BI "\-notr"\c
297\&If the
298.B ssh
299command fails, use the public key stored in the local known hosts file
300and trust it is the correct key for the host. If this option is not
301given such entries are commented out in the generated
302.B /etc/ssh_known_hosts
303file.
304
305.TP
306.BI "\-\-norecursive"\c
307.TP
308.BI "\-nor"\c
309\&Tell
310.B make-ssh-known-hosts
311that it should only extract keys for the given domain, and not to be
312recursive.
313
314.TP
315.BI "\-\-domainnamesplit"\c
316.TP
317.BI "\-do"\c
318\&Split the domainname to get the list of subdomains. Use this option
319if you don't want hostname to splitted to pieces automatically.
320Default splitting is done host by host basis. If the domain is
321zappa.hut.fi, and the host name is foo.bar then default action adds
322entries "\|\c
323.I foo, foo.bar, foo.bar.zappa, foo.bar.zappa.hut.fi\c
324\|" and this options adds entries "\|\c
325.I foo.bar, foo.bar.zappa, foo.bar.zappa.hut.fi\c
326\|").
327
328.TP
329.BI "\-\-silent"\c
330.TP
331.BI "\-si"\c
332\&Be silent.
333
334.TP
335.BI "\-\-keyscan"\c
336.TP
337.BI "\-k"\c
338\&Output list of all hosts in format "ipaddr1,ipaddr2,...ipaddrn
339hostname.domain.co,hostname,ipaddr1,ipaddr2,all_other_hostname_entries".
340The output of this can be feeded to ssh-keyscan to fetch keys.
341
342.TP
343.BI "\-\-nslookup " "path_to_nslookup_program"\c
344.TP
345.BI "\-n " "path_to_nslookup_program"\c

357
358.SH EXAMPLES
359.LP
360The following command:
361.IP
362.B example# make-ssh-known-hosts cs.hut.fi > \c
363.B /etc/ssh_known_hosts
364.LP
365finds all public keys of the hosts in
366.B cs.hut.fi
367domain and put them to
368.B /etc/ssh_known_hosts
369file splitting domain names on a per host basis.
370.LP
371The command
372.IP
373.B example% make-ssh-known-hosts hut.fi '^wks=.*ssh' > \c
374.B hut-hosts
375.LP
376finds all hosts in
377.B hut.fi
378domain, and its subdomains having own name server (cs.hut.fi,
379tf.hut.fi, tky.hut.fi) that have ssh service and puts their public key
380to hut-hosts file. This would require that the domain name server of
381hut.fi would define all hosts running ssh to have entry ssh in their
382WKS record. Because nobody yet adds ssh to WKS, it would be better to
383use command
384.IP
385.B example% make-ssh-known-hosts hut.fi '^wks=.*telnet' > \c
386.B hut-hosts
387.LP
388that would take those host having telnet service. This uses default
389subdomain list.
390
391.LP
392The command:
393.IP
394.B example% make-ssh-known-hosts hut.fi 'dipoli.hut.fi' '^hinfo=.*(mac|pc)' > \c
395.B dipoli-hosts
396.LP
397finds all hosts in hut.fi domain that are in dipoli.hut.fi subdomain
398(note dipoli.hut.fi does not have own name server so its entries are
399in hut.fi-server) and that are not Mac or PC.
