When run without arguments, it adds the files + ~/.ssh/id_rsa, ~/.ssh/id_dsa, ~/.ssh/id_ecdsa, and ~/.ssh/id_ed25519. + After loading a private key, ssh-add will try to load corresponding + certificate information from the filename obtained by appending -cert.pub + to the name of the private key file. Alternative file names can be given + on the command line. + + If any file requires a passphrase, ssh-add asks for the passphrase from + the user. The passphrase is read from the user's tty. ssh-add retries + the last passphrase if multiple identity files are given. + + The authentication agent must be running and the SSH_AUTH_SOCK + environment variable must contain the name of its socket for ssh-add to + work. + + The options are as follows: + + -c Indicates that added identities should be subject to confirmation + before being used for authentication. Confirmation is performed + by ssh-askpass(1). Successful confirmation is signaled by a zero + exit status from ssh-askpass(1), rather than text entered into + the requester. + + -D Deletes all identities from the agent. + + -d Instead of adding identities, removes identities from the agent. + If ssh-add has been run without arguments, the keys for the + default identities and their corresponding certificates will be + removed. Otherwise, the argument list will be interpreted as a + list of paths to public key files to specify keys and + certificates to be removed from the agent. If no public key is + found at a given path, ssh-add will append .pub and retry. + + -E fingerprint_hash + Specifies the hash algorithm used when displaying key + fingerprints. Valid options are: M-bM-^@M-^\md5M-bM-^@M-^] and M-bM-^@M-^\sha256M-bM-^@M-^]. The + default is M-bM-^@M-^\sha256M-bM-^@M-^]. + + -e pkcs11 + Remove keys provided by the PKCS#11 shared library pkcs11. + + -k When loading keys into or deleting keys from the agent, process + plain private keys only and skip certificates. + + -L Lists public key parameters of all identities currently + represented by the agent. + + -l Lists fingerprints of all identities currently represented by the + agent. + + -q Be quiet after a successful operation. + + -s pkcs11 + Add keys provided by the PKCS#11 shared library pkcs11. + + -t life + Set a maximum lifetime when adding identities to an agent. The + lifetime may be specified in seconds or in a time format + specified in sshd_config(5). + + -X Unlock the agent. + + -x Lock the agent with a password. + +ENVIRONMENT + DISPLAY and SSH_ASKPASS + If ssh-add needs a passphrase, it will read the passphrase from + the current terminal if it was run from a terminal. If ssh-add + does not have a terminal associated with it but DISPLAY and + SSH_ASKPASS are set, it will execute the program specified by + SSH_ASKPASS (by default M-bM-^@M-^\ssh-askpassM-bM-^@M-^]) and open an X11 window to + read the passphrase. This is particularly useful when calling + ssh-add from a .xsession or related script. (Note that on some + machines it may be necessary to redirect the input from /dev/null + to make this work.) + + SSH_AUTH_SOCK + Identifies the path of a UNIX-domain socket used to communicate + with the agent. + +FILES + ~/.ssh/id_dsa + Contains the DSA authentication identity of the user. + + ~/.ssh/id_ecdsa + Contains the ECDSA authentication identity of the user. + + ~/.ssh/id_ed25519 + Contains the Ed25519 authentication identity of the user. + + ~/.ssh/id_rsa + Contains the RSA authentication identity of the user. + + Identity files should not be readable by anyone but the user. Note that + ssh-add ignores identity files if they are accessible by others. + +EXIT STATUS + Exit status is 0 on success, 1 if the specified command fails, and 2 if + ssh-add is unable to contact the authentication agent. + +SEE ALSO + ssh(1), ssh-agent(1), ssh-askpass(1), ssh-keygen(1), sshd(8) + +AUTHORS + OpenSSH is a derivative of the original and free ssh 1.2.12 release by + Tatu Ylonen. Aaron Campbell, Bob Beck, Markus Friedl, Niels Provos, Theo + de Raadt and Dug Song removed many bugs, re-added newer features and + created OpenSSH.
