+.Xr sshd 8 +reads configuration data from +.Pa /etc/ssh/sshd_config +(or the file specified with +.Fl f +on the command line). +The file contains keyword-argument pairs, one per line. +For each keyword, the first obtained value will be used. +Lines starting with +.Ql # +and empty lines are interpreted as comments. +Arguments may optionally be enclosed in double quotes +.Pq \&" +in order to represent arguments containing spaces. +.Pp +The possible +keywords and their meanings are as follows (note that +keywords are case-insensitive and arguments are case-sensitive): +.Bl -tag -width Ds +.It Cm AcceptEnv +Specifies what environment variables sent by the client will be copied into +the session's +.Xr environ 7 . +See +.Cm SendEnv +and +.Cm SetEnv +in +.Xr ssh_config 5 +for how to configure the client. +The +.Ev TERM +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 +.Ql * +and +.Ql \&? . +Multiple environment variables may be separated by whitespace or spread +across multiple +.Cm AcceptEnv +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. +.It Cm AddressFamily +Specifies which address family should be used by +.Xr sshd 8 . +Valid arguments are +.Cm any +(the default), +.Cm inet +(use IPv4 only), or +.Cm inet6 +(use IPv6 only). +.It Cm AllowAgentForwarding +Specifies whether +.Xr ssh-agent 1 +forwarding is permitted. +The default is +.Cm yes . +Note that disabling agent forwarding does not improve security +unless users are also denied shell access, as they can always install +their own forwarders. +.It Cm 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 ID is not recognized. +By default, login is allowed for all groups. +The allow/deny directives are processed in the following order: +.Cm DenyUsers , +.Cm AllowUsers , +.Cm DenyGroups , +and finally +.Cm AllowGroups . +.Pp +See PATTERNS in +.Xr ssh_config 5 +for more information on patterns. +.It Cm AllowStreamLocalForwarding +Specifies whether StreamLocal (Unix-domain socket) forwarding is permitted. +The available options are +.Cm yes +(the default) +or +.Cm all +to allow StreamLocal forwarding, +.Cm no +to prevent all StreamLocal forwarding, +.Cm local +to allow local (from the perspective of +.Xr ssh 1 ) +forwarding only or +.Cm remote +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. +.It Cm AllowTcpForwarding +Specifies whether TCP forwarding is permitted. +The available options are +.Cm yes +(the default) +or +.Cm all +to allow TCP forwarding, +.Cm no +to prevent all TCP forwarding, +.Cm local +to allow local (from the perspective of +.Xr ssh 1 ) +forwarding only or +.Cm remote +to allow remote forwarding only. +Note that disabling TCP forwarding does not improve security unless +users are also denied shell access, as they can always install their +own forwarders. +.It Cm 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 ID is not recognized. +By default, login is allowed for all users. +If the pattern takes the form USER@HOST then USER and HOST +are separately checked, restricting logins to particular +users from particular hosts. +HOST criteria may additionally contain addresses to match in CIDR +address/masklen format. +The allow/deny directives are processed in the following order: +.Cm DenyUsers , +.Cm AllowUsers , +.Cm DenyGroups , +and finally +.Cm AllowGroups . +.Pp +See PATTERNS in +.Xr ssh_config 5 +for more information on patterns. +.It Cm 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 +.Cm any +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 +.Cm bsdauth +or +.Cm pam . +depending on the server configuration. +For example, +.Qq keyboard-interactive:bsdauth +would restrict keyboard interactive authentication to the +.Cm bsdauth +device. +.Pp +If the publickey method is listed more than once, +.Xr sshd 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 +.Cm PermitEmptyPasswords +is enabled), +.Qq password +and +.Qq publickey . +.It Cm 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 +.Cm AuthorizedKeysCommand +accept the tokens described in the +.Sx TOKENS +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 +.Sx AUTHORIZED_KEYS +in +.Xr sshd 8 ) . +If a key supplied by +.Cm AuthorizedKeysCommand +does not successfully authenticate +and authorize the user then public key authentication continues using the usual +.Cm AuthorizedKeysFile +files. +By default, no +.Cm AuthorizedKeysCommand +is run. +.It Cm AuthorizedKeysCommandUser +Specifies the user under whose account the +.Cm AuthorizedKeysCommand +is run. +It is recommended to use a dedicated user that has no other role on the host +than running authorized keys commands. +If +.Cm AuthorizedKeysCommand +is specified but +.Cm AuthorizedKeysCommandUser +is not, then +.Xr sshd 8 +will refuse to start. +.It Cm AuthorizedKeysFile +Specifies the file that contains the public keys used for user authentication. +The format is described in the +.Sx AUTHORIZED_KEYS FILE FORMAT +section of +.Xr sshd 8 . +Arguments to +.Cm AuthorizedKeysFile +accept the tokens described in the +.Sx TOKENS +section. +After expansion, +.Cm AuthorizedKeysFile +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 +.Cm none +to skip checking for user keys in files. +The default is +.Qq .ssh/authorized_keys .ssh/authorized_keys2 . +.It Cm AuthorizedPrincipalsCommand +Specifies a program to be used to generate the list of allowed +certificate principals as per +.Cm AuthorizedPrincipalsFile . +The program must be owned by root, not writable by group or others and +specified by an absolute path. +Arguments to +.Cm AuthorizedPrincipalsCommand +accept the tokens described in the +.Sx TOKENS +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 +.Cm AuthorizedPrincipalsFile +output. +If either +.Cm AuthorizedPrincipalsCommand +or +.Cm AuthorizedPrincipalsFile +is specified, then certificates offered by the client for authentication +must contain a principal that is listed. +By default, no +.Cm AuthorizedPrincipalsCommand +is run. +.It Cm AuthorizedPrincipalsCommandUser +Specifies the user under whose account the +.Cm AuthorizedPrincipalsCommand +is run. +It is recommended to use a dedicated user that has no other role on the host +than running authorized principals commands. +If +.Cm AuthorizedPrincipalsCommand +is specified but +.Cm AuthorizedPrincipalsCommandUser +is not, then +.Xr sshd 8 +will refuse to start. +.It Cm AuthorizedPrincipalsFile +Specifies a file that lists principal names that are accepted for +certificate authentication. +When using certificates signed by a key listed in +.Cm TrustedUserCAKeys , +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 +.Sx AUTHORIZED_KEYS FILE FORMAT +in +.Xr sshd 8 ) . +Empty lines and comments starting with +.Ql # +are ignored. +.Pp +Arguments to +.Cm AuthorizedPrincipalsFile +accept the tokens described in the +.Sx TOKENS +section. +After expansion, +.Cm AuthorizedPrincipalsFile +is taken to be an absolute path or one relative to the user's home directory. +The default is +.Cm none , +i.e. not to use a principals file \(en in this case, the username +of the user must appear in a certificate's principals list for it to be +accepted. +.Pp +Note that +.Cm AuthorizedPrincipalsFile +is only used when authentication proceeds using a CA listed in +.Cm TrustedUserCAKeys +and is not consulted for certification authorities trusted via +.Pa ~/.ssh/authorized_keys , +though the +.Cm principals= +key option offers a similar facility (see +.Xr sshd 8 +for details). +.It Cm Banner +The contents of the specified file are sent to the remote user before +authentication is allowed. +If the argument is +.Cm none +then no banner is displayed. +By default, no banner is displayed. +.It Cm CASignatureAlgorithms +Specifies which algorithms are allowed for signing of certificates +by certificate authorities (CAs). +The default is: +.Bd -literal -offset indent +ecdsa-sha2-nistp256.ecdsa-sha2-nistp384,ecdsa-sha2-nistp521, +ssh-ed25519,rsa-sha2-512,rsa-sha2-256,ssh-rsa +.Ed +.Pp +Certificates signed using other algorithms will not be accepted for +public key or host-based authentication. +.It Cm ChallengeResponseAuthentication +Specifies whether challenge-response authentication is allowed (e.g. via +PAM or through authentication styles supported in +.Xr login.conf 5 ) +The default is +.Cm yes . +.It Cm ChrootDirectory +Specifies the pathname of a directory to +.Xr chroot 2 +to after authentication. +At session startup +.Xr sshd 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, +.Xr sshd 8 +changes the working directory to the user's home directory. +Arguments to +.Cm ChrootDirectory +accept the tokens described in the +.Sx TOKENS +section. +.Pp +The +.Cm ChrootDirectory +must contain the necessary files and directories to support the +user's session. +For an interactive session this requires at least a shell, typically +.Xr sh 1 , +and basic +.Pa /dev +nodes such as +.Xr null 4 , +.Xr zero 4 , +.Xr stdin 4 , +.Xr stdout 4 , +.Xr stderr 4 , +and +.Xr tty 4 +devices. +For file transfer sessions using SFTP +no additional configuration of the environment is necessary if the in-process +sftp-server is used, +though sessions which use logging may require +.Pa /dev/log +inside the chroot directory on some operating systems (see +.Xr sftp-server 8 +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 +.Xr sshd 8 +cannot detect. +.Pp +The default is +.Cm none , +indicating not to +.Xr chroot 2 . +.It Cm Ciphers +Specifies the ciphers allowed. +Multiple ciphers must be comma-separated. +If the specified value begins with a +.Sq + +character, then the specified ciphers will be appended to the default set +instead of replacing them. +If the specified value begins with a +.Sq - +character, then the specified ciphers (including wildcards) will be removed +from the default set instead of replacing them. +.Pp +The supported ciphers are: +.Pp +.Bl -item -compact -offset indent +.It +3des-cbc +.It +aes128-cbc +.It +aes192-cbc +.It +aes256-cbc +.It +aes128-ctr +.It +aes192-ctr +.It +aes256-ctr +.It +aes128-gcm@openssh.com +.It +aes256-gcm@openssh.com +.It +chacha20-poly1305@openssh.com +.El +.Pp +The default is: +.Bd -literal -offset indent +chacha20-poly1305@openssh.com, +aes128-ctr,aes192-ctr,aes256-ctr, +aes128-gcm@openssh.com,aes256-gcm@openssh.com +.Ed +.Pp +The list of available ciphers may also be obtained using +.Qq ssh -Q cipher . +.It Cm ClientAliveCountMax +Sets the number of client alive messages which may be sent without +.Xr sshd 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 +.Cm TCPKeepAlive . +The client alive messages are sent through the encrypted channel +and therefore will not be spoofable. +The TCP keepalive option enabled by +.Cm TCPKeepAlive +is spoofable. +The client alive mechanism is valuable when the client or +server depend on knowing when a connection has become inactive. +.Pp +The default value is 3. +If +.Cm ClientAliveInterval +is set to 15, and +.Cm ClientAliveCountMax +is left at the default, unresponsive SSH clients +will be disconnected after approximately 45 seconds. +.It Cm ClientAliveInterval +Sets a timeout interval in seconds after which if no data has been received +from the client, +.Xr sshd 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. +.It Cm Compression +Specifies whether compression is enabled after +the user has authenticated successfully. +The argument must be +.Cm yes , +.Cm delayed +(a legacy synonym for +.Cm yes ) +or +.Cm no . +The default is +.Cm yes . +.It Cm 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 ID is not recognized. +By default, login is allowed for all groups. +The allow/deny directives are processed in the following order: +.Cm DenyUsers , +.Cm AllowUsers , +.Cm DenyGroups , +and finally +.Cm AllowGroups . +.Pp +See PATTERNS in +.Xr ssh_config 5 +for more information on patterns. +.It Cm 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 ID is not recognized. +By default, login is allowed for all users. +If the pattern takes the form USER@HOST then USER and HOST +are separately checked, restricting logins to particular +users from particular hosts. +HOST criteria may additionally contain addresses to match in CIDR +address/masklen format. +The allow/deny directives are processed in the following order: +.Cm DenyUsers , +.Cm AllowUsers , +.Cm DenyGroups , +and finally +.Cm AllowGroups . +.Pp +See PATTERNS in +.Xr ssh_config 5 +for more information on patterns. +.It Cm DisableForwarding +Disables all forwarding features, including X11, +.Xr ssh-agent 1 , +TCP and StreamLocal. +This option overrides all other forwarding-related options and may +simplify restricted configurations. +.It Cm 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 +.Ev SSH_USER_AUTH +environment variable. +The default is +.Cm no . +.It Cm FingerprintHash +Specifies the hash algorithm used when logging key fingerprints. +Valid options are: +.Cm md5 +and +.Cm sha256 . +The default is +.Cm sha256 . +.It Cm ForceCommand +Forces the execution of the command specified by +.Cm ForceCommand , +ignoring any command supplied by the client and +.Pa ~/.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 +.Cm Match +block. +The command originally supplied by the client is available in the +.Ev SSH_ORIGINAL_COMMAND +environment variable. +Specifying a command of +.Cm internal-sftp +will force the use of an in-process SFTP server that requires no support +files when used with +.Cm ChrootDirectory . +The default is +.Cm none . +.It Cm GatewayPorts +Specifies whether remote hosts are allowed to connect to ports +forwarded for the client. +By default, +.Xr sshd 8 +binds remote port forwardings to the loopback address. +This prevents other remote hosts from connecting to forwarded ports. +.Cm GatewayPorts +can be used to specify that sshd +should allow remote port forwardings to bind to non-loopback addresses, thus +allowing other hosts to connect. +The argument may be +.Cm no +to force remote port forwardings to be available to the local host only, +.Cm yes +to force remote port forwardings to bind to the wildcard address, or +.Cm clientspecified +to allow the client to select the address to which the forwarding is bound. +The default is +.Cm no . +.It Cm GSSAPIAuthentication +Specifies whether user authentication based on GSSAPI is allowed. +The default is +.Cm no . +.It Cm GSSAPICleanupCredentials +Specifies whether to automatically destroy the user's credentials cache +on logout. +The default is +.Cm yes . +.It Cm GSSAPIStrictAcceptorCheck +Determines whether to be strict about the identity of the GSSAPI acceptor +a client authenticates against. +If set to +.Cm yes +then the client must authenticate against the host +service on the current hostname. +If set to +.Cm no +then the client may authenticate against any service key stored in the +machine's default store. +This facility is provided to assist with operation on multi homed machines. +The default is +.Cm yes . +.It Cm HostbasedAcceptedKeyTypes +Specifies the key types that will be accepted for hostbased authentication +as a list of comma-separated patterns. +Alternately if the specified value begins with a +.Sq + +character, then the specified key types will be appended to the default set +instead of replacing them. +If the specified value begins with a +.Sq - +character, then the specified key types (including wildcards) will be removed +from the default set instead of replacing them. +The default for this option is: +.Bd -literal -offset 3n +ecdsa-sha2-nistp256-cert-v01@openssh.com, +ecdsa-sha2-nistp384-cert-v01@openssh.com, +ecdsa-sha2-nistp521-cert-v01@openssh.com, +ssh-ed25519-cert-v01@openssh.com,

+ssh-ed25519,rsa-sha2-512,rsa-sha2-256,ssh-rsa +.Ed +.Pp +The list of available key types may also be obtained using +.Qq ssh -Q key . +.It Cm HostbasedAuthentication +Specifies whether rhosts or /etc/hosts.equiv authentication together +with successful public key client host authentication is allowed +(host-based authentication). +The default is +.Cm no . +.It Cm HostbasedUsesNameFromPacketOnly +Specifies whether or not the server will attempt to perform a reverse +name lookup when matching the name in the +.Pa ~/.shosts , +.Pa ~/.rhosts , +and +.Pa /etc/hosts.equiv +files during +.Cm HostbasedAuthentication . +A setting of +.Cm yes +means that +.Xr sshd 8 +uses the name supplied by the client rather than +attempting to resolve the name from the TCP connection itself. +The default is +.Cm no . +.It Cm HostCertificate +Specifies a file containing a public host certificate. +The certificate's public key must match a private host key already specified +by +.Cm HostKey . +The default behaviour of +.Xr sshd 8 +is not to load any certificates. +.It Cm HostKey +Specifies a file containing a private host key +used by SSH. +The defaults are +.Pa /etc/ssh/ssh_host_ecdsa_key , +.Pa /etc/ssh/ssh_host_ed25519_key +and +.Pa /etc/ssh/ssh_host_rsa_key . +.Pp +Note that +.Xr sshd 8 +will refuse to use a file if it is group/world-accessible +and that the +.Cm HostKeyAlgorithms +option restricts which of the keys are actually used by +.Xr sshd 8 . +.Pp +It is possible to have multiple host key files. +It is also possible to specify public host key files instead. +In this case operations on the private key will be delegated +to an +.Xr ssh-agent 1 . +.It Cm HostKeyAgent +Identifies the UNIX-domain socket used to communicate +with an agent that has access to the private host keys. +If the string +.Qq SSH_AUTH_SOCK +is specified, the location of the socket will be read from the +.Ev SSH_AUTH_SOCK +environment variable. +.It Cm HostKeyAlgorithms +Specifies the host key algorithms +that the server offers. +The default for this option is: +.Bd -literal -offset 3n +ecdsa-sha2-nistp256-cert-v01@openssh.com,

obtained using +.Qq ssh -Q key . +.It Cm IgnoreRhosts +Specifies that +.Pa .rhosts +and +.Pa .shosts +files will not be used in +.Cm HostbasedAuthentication . +.Pp +.Pa /etc/hosts.equiv +and +.Pa /etc/shosts.equiv +are still used. +The default is +.Cm yes . +.It Cm IgnoreUserKnownHosts +Specifies whether +.Xr sshd 8 +should ignore the user's +.Pa ~/.ssh/known_hosts +during +.Cm HostbasedAuthentication +and use only the system-wide known hosts file +.Pa /etc/ssh/known_hosts . +The default is +.Cm no . +.It Cm IPQoS +Specifies the IPv4 type-of-service or DSCP class for the connection. +Accepted values are +.Cm af11 , +.Cm af12 , +.Cm af13 , +.Cm af21 , +.Cm af22 , +.Cm af23 , +.Cm af31 , +.Cm af32 , +.Cm af33 , +.Cm af41 , +.Cm af42 , +.Cm af43 , +.Cm cs0 , +.Cm cs1 ,

+This option may take one or two arguments, separated by whitespace. +If one argument is specified, it is used as the packet class unconditionally. +If two values are specified, the first is automatically selected for +interactive sessions and the second for non-interactive sessions. +The default is +.Cm af21 +(Low-Latency Data) +for interactive sessions and +.Cm cs1 +(Lower Effort) +for non-interactive sessions. +.It Cm KbdInteractiveAuthentication +Specifies whether to allow keyboard-interactive authentication. +The argument to this keyword must be +.Cm yes +or +.Cm no . +The default is to use whatever value +.Cm ChallengeResponseAuthentication +is set to +(by default +.Cm yes ) . +.It Cm KerberosAuthentication +Specifies whether the password provided by the user for +.Cm PasswordAuthentication +will be validated through the Kerberos KDC. +To use this option, the server needs a +Kerberos servtab which allows the verification of the KDC's identity. +The default is +.Cm no . +.It Cm KerberosGetAFSToken +If AFS is active and the user has a Kerberos 5 TGT, attempt to acquire +an AFS token before accessing the user's home directory. +The default is +.Cm no . +.It Cm KerberosOrLocalPasswd +If password authentication through Kerberos fails then +the password will be validated via any additional local mechanism +such as +.Pa /etc/passwd . +The default is +.Cm yes .

domain. +Multiple +.Cm ListenAddress +options are permitted. +For more information on routing domains, see +.Xr rdomain 4 . +.It Cm LoginGraceTime +The server disconnects after this time if the user has not +successfully logged in. +If the value is 0, there is no time limit. +The default is 120 seconds. +.It Cm LogLevel +Gives the verbosity level that is used when logging messages from +.Xr sshd 8 . +The possible values are: +QUIET, FATAL, ERROR, INFO, VERBOSE, DEBUG, DEBUG1, DEBUG2, and DEBUG3. +The default is INFO. +DEBUG and DEBUG1 are equivalent. +DEBUG2 and DEBUG3 each specify higher levels of debugging output. +Logging with a DEBUG level violates the privacy of users and is not recommended. +.It Cm MACs +Specifies the available MAC (message authentication code) algorithms. +The

failures reaches half this value, +additional failures are logged. +The default is 6. +.It Cm MaxSessions +Specifies the maximum number of open shell, login or subsystem (e.g. sftp) +sessions permitted per network connection. +Multiple sessions may be established by clients that support connection +multiplexing. +Setting +.Cm MaxSessions +to 1 will effectively disable session multiplexing, whereas setting it to 0 +will prevent all shell, login and subsystem sessions while still permitting +forwarding. +The default is 10. +.It Cm MaxStartups +Specifies the maximum number of concurrent unauthenticated connections to the +SSH daemon. +Additional connections will be dropped until authentication succeeds or the +.Cm LoginGraceTime +expires for a connection. +The default is 10:30:100. +.Pp +Alternatively, random early drop can be enabled by specifying +the three colon separated values +start:rate:full (e.g. "10:30:60"). +.Xr sshd 8 +will refuse connection attempts with a

hosts or ports, respectively. +By default all port forwarding requests are permitted. +.It Cm PermitRootLogin +Specifies whether root can log in using +.Xr ssh 1 . +The argument must be +.Cm yes , +.Cm prohibit-password , +.Cm forced-commands-only , +or +.Cm no . +The default is +.Cm prohibit-password . +.Pp +If this option is set to +.Cm prohibit-password +(or its deprecated alias, +.Cm without-password ) , +password and keyboard-interactive authentication are disabled for root. +.Pp +If this option is set to +.Cm forced-commands-only , +root login with public key authentication will be allowed, +but only if the +.Ar command +option has been specified +(which may be useful for taking remote backups even if root login is +normally not allowed). +All other authentication methods are disabled for root. +.Pp +If this option is set to +.Cm no , +root is not allowed to log in. +.It Cm PermitTTY +Specifies whether +.Xr pty 4 +allocation is permitted. +The default is +.Cm yes . +.It Cm PermitTunnel +Specifies whether +.Xr tun 4 +device forwarding is allowed. +The argument must be +.Cm yes , +.Cm point-to-point +(layer 3), +.Cm ethernet +(layer 2), or +.Cm no . +Specifying +.Cm yes +permits both +.Cm point-to-point +and +.Cm ethernet . +The default is +.Cm no . +.Pp +Independent of this setting, the permissions of the selected +.Xr tun 4 +device must allow access to the user. +.It Cm PermitUserEnvironment +Specifies whether +.Pa ~/.ssh/environment +and +.Cm environment= +options in +.Pa ~/.ssh/authorized_keys +are processed by +.Xr sshd 8 . +Valid options are +.Cm yes , +.Cm no +or a pattern-list specifying which environment variable names to accept +(for example +.Qq LANG,LC_* ) . +The default is +.Cm no . +Enabling environment processing may enable users to bypass access +restrictions in some configurations using mechanisms such as +.Ev LD_PRELOAD . +.It Cm PermitUserRC +Specifies whether any +.Pa ~/.ssh/rc +file is executed. +The default is +.Cm yes . +.It Cm PidFile +Specifies the file that contains the process ID of the +SSH daemon, or +.Cm none +to not write one. +The default is +.Pa /var/run/sshd.pid . +.It Cm Port +Specifies the port number that +.Xr sshd 8 +listens on. +The default is 22. +Multiple options of this type are permitted. +See also +.Cm ListenAddress . +.It Cm PrintLastLog +Specifies whether +.Xr sshd 8 +should print the date and time of the last user login when a user logs +in interactively. +The default is +.Cm yes . +.It Cm PrintMotd +Specifies whether +.Xr sshd 8 +should print +.Pa /etc/motd +when a user logs in interactively. +(On some systems it is also printed by the shell, +.Pa /etc/profile , +or equivalent.) +The default is +.Cm yes . +.It Cm PubkeyAcceptedKeyTypes +Specifies the key types that will be accepted for public key authentication +as a list of comma-separated patterns. +Alternately if the specified value begins with a +.Sq + +character, then the specified key types will be appended to the default set +instead of replacing them. +If the specified value begins with a +.Sq - +character, then the specified key types (including wildcards) will be removed +from the default set instead of replacing them. +The default for this option is: +.Bd -literal -offset 3n +ecdsa-sha2-nistp256-cert-v01@openssh.com, +ecdsa-sha2-nistp384-cert-v01@openssh.com, +ecdsa-sha2-nistp521-cert-v01@openssh.com,

authentication is allowed. +The default is +.Cm yes . +.It Cm RekeyLimit +Specifies the maximum amount of data that may be transmitted before the +session key is renegotiated, optionally followed a maximum amount of +time that may pass before the session key is renegotiated. +The first argument is specified in bytes and may have a suffix of +.Sq K , +.Sq M , +or +.Sq G +to indicate Kilobytes, Megabytes, or Gigabytes, respectively. +The default is between +.Sq 1G +and +.Sq 4G , +depending on the cipher. +The optional second value is specified in seconds and may use any of the +units documented in the +.Sx TIME FORMATS +section. +The default value for +.Cm RekeyLimit +is +.Cm default none , +which means that rekeying is performed after the cipher's default amount +of data has been sent or received and no time based rekeying is done. +.It Cm RevokedKeys +Specifies revoked public keys file, or +.Cm none +to not use one. +Keys listed in this file will be refused for public key authentication. +Note that if this file is not readable, then public key authentication will +be refused for all users. +Keys may be specified as a text file, listing one public key per line, or as +an OpenSSH Key Revocation List (KRL) as generated by +.Xr ssh-keygen 1 . +For more information on KRLs, see the KEY REVOCATION LISTS section in +.Xr ssh-keygen 1 . +.It Cm RDomain +Specifies an explicit routing domain that is applied after authentication +has completed. +The user session, as well and any forwarded or listening IP sockets, +will be bound to this +.Xr rdomain 4 . +If the routing domain is set to +.Cm \&%D , +then the domain in which the incoming connection was received will be applied. +.It Cm SetEnv +Specifies one or more environment variables to set in child sessions started +by +.Xr sshd 8 +as +.Dq NAME=VALUE . +The environment value may be quoted (e.g. if it contains whitespace +characters). +Environment variables set by +.Cm SetEnv +override the default environment and any variables specified by the user +via +.Cm AcceptEnv +or +.Cm PermitUserEnvironment . +.It Cm StreamLocalBindMask +Sets the octal file creation mode mask +.Pq umask +used when creating a Unix-domain socket file for local or remote +port forwarding. +This option is only used for port forwarding to a Unix-domain socket file. +.Pp +The default value is 0177, which creates a Unix-domain socket file that is +readable and writable only by the owner. +Note that not all operating systems honor the file mode on Unix-domain +socket files. +.It Cm StreamLocalBindUnlink +Specifies whether to remove an existing Unix-domain socket file for local +or remote port forwarding before creating a new one. +If the socket file already exists and +.Cm StreamLocalBindUnlink +is not enabled, +.Nm sshd +will be unable to forward the port to the Unix-domain socket file. +This option is only used for port forwarding to a Unix-domain socket file. +.Pp +The argument must be +.Cm yes +or +.Cm no . +The default is +.Cm no . +.It Cm StrictModes +Specifies whether +.Xr sshd 8 +should check file modes and ownership of the +user's files and home directory before accepting login. +This is normally desirable because novices sometimes accidentally leave their +directory or files world-writable. +The default is +.Cm yes . +Note that this does not apply to +.Cm ChrootDirectory , +whose permissions and ownership are checked unconditionally. +.It Cm Subsystem +Configures an external subsystem (e.g. file transfer daemon). +Arguments should be a subsystem name and a command (with optional arguments) +to execute upon subsystem request. +.Pp +The command +.Cm sftp-server +implements the SFTP file transfer subsystem. +.Pp +Alternately the name +.Cm internal-sftp +implements an in-process SFTP server. +This may simplify configurations using +.Cm ChrootDirectory +to force a different filesystem root on clients. +.Pp +By default no subsystems are defined. +.It Cm SyslogFacility +Gives the facility code that is used when logging messages from +.Xr sshd 8 . +The possible values are: DAEMON, USER, AUTH, LOCAL0, LOCAL1, LOCAL2, +LOCAL3, LOCAL4, LOCAL5, LOCAL6, LOCAL7. +The default is AUTH. +.It Cm TCPKeepAlive +Specifies whether the system should send TCP keepalive messages 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. +On the other hand, if TCP keepalives are not sent, +sessions may hang indefinitely on the server, leaving +.Qq ghost +users and consuming server resources. +.Pp +The default is +.Cm yes +(to send TCP keepalive messages), and the server will notice +if the network goes down or the client host crashes. +This avoids infinitely hanging sessions. +.Pp +To disable TCP keepalive messages, the value should be set to +.Cm no . +.It Cm TrustedUserCAKeys +Specifies a file containing public keys of certificate authorities that are +trusted to sign user certificates for authentication, or +.Cm none +to not use one. +Keys are listed one per line; empty lines and comments starting with +.Ql # +are allowed. +If a certificate is presented for authentication and has its signing CA key +listed in this file, then it may be used for authentication for any user +listed in the certificate's principals list. +Note that certificates that lack a list of principals will not be permitted +for authentication using +.Cm TrustedUserCAKeys . +For more details on certificates, see the CERTIFICATES section in +.Xr ssh-keygen 1 . +.It Cm UseDNS +Specifies whether +.Xr sshd 8 +should look up the remote host name, and to check that +the resolved host name for the remote IP address maps back to the +very same IP address. +.Pp +If this option is set to +.Cm no +(the default) then only addresses and not host names may be used in +.Pa ~/.ssh/authorized_keys +.Cm from +and +.Nm +.Cm Match +.Cm Host +directives. +.It Cm UsePAM +Enables the Pluggable Authentication Module interface. +If set to +.Cm yes +this will enable PAM authentication using +.Cm ChallengeResponseAuthentication +and +.Cm PasswordAuthentication +in addition to PAM account and session module processing for all +authentication types. +.Pp +Because PAM challenge-response authentication usually serves an equivalent +role to password authentication, you should disable either +.Cm PasswordAuthentication +or +.Cm ChallengeResponseAuthentication. +.Pp +If +.Cm UsePAM +is enabled, you will not be able to run +.Xr sshd 8 +as a non-root user. +The default is +.Cm no . +.It Cm VersionAddendum +Optionally specifies additional text to append to the SSH protocol banner +sent by the server upon connection. +The default is +.Cm none . +.It Cm X11DisplayOffset +Specifies the first display number available for +.Xr sshd 8 Ns 's +X11 forwarding. +This prevents sshd from interfering with real X11 servers. +The default is 10. +.It Cm X11Forwarding +Specifies whether X11 forwarding is permitted. +The argument must be +.Cm yes +or +.Cm no . +The default is +.Cm no . +.Pp +When X11 forwarding is enabled, there may be additional exposure to +the server and to client displays if the +.Xr sshd 8 +proxy display is configured to listen on the wildcard address (see +.Cm X11UseLocalhost ) , +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 SSH client requests +forwarding (see the warnings for +.Cm ForwardX11 +in +.Xr ssh_config 5 ) . +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 +.Cm no +setting. +.Pp +Note that disabling X11 forwarding does not prevent users from +forwarding X11 traffic, as users can always install their own forwarders. +.It Cm X11UseLocalhost +Specifies whether +.Xr sshd 8 +should bind the X11 forwarding server to the loopback address or to +the wildcard address. +By default, +sshd binds the forwarding server to the loopback address and sets the +hostname part of the +.Ev DISPLAY +environment variable to +.Cm localhost . +This prevents remote hosts from connecting to the proxy display. +However, some older X11 clients may not function with this +configuration. +.Cm X11UseLocalhost +may be set to +.Cm no +to specify that the forwarding server should be bound to the wildcard +address. +The argument must be +.Cm yes +or +.Cm no . +The default is +.Cm yes . +.It Cm XAuthLocation +Specifies the full pathname of the +.Xr xauth 1 +program, or +.Cm none +to not use one. +The default is +.Pa /usr/X11R6/bin/xauth . +.El +.Sh TIME FORMATS +.Xr sshd 8 +command-line arguments and configuration file options that specify time +may be expressed using a sequence of the form: +.Sm off +.Ar time Op Ar qualifier , +.Sm on +where +.Ar time +is a
