See ssh(1) and sshd(8) for more information about + hostbased authentication. + +FILES + /etc/ssh/ssh_host_dsa_key, /etc/ssh/ssh_host_rsa_key + These files contain the private parts of the host keys used to + generate the digital signature. They should be owned by root, + readable only by root, and not accessible to others. Since they + are readable only by root, ssh-keysign must be set-uid root if + hostbased authentication is used. + +SEE ALSO + ssh(1), ssh-keygen(1), sshd(8) + +AUTHORS + Markus Friedl + +HISTORY + ssh-keysign first appeared in OpenBSD 3.2. + +BSD May 24, 2002 BSD -- cgit v1.2.3
