.Sh DESCRIPTION
|
|
.Nm
|
|
is a script that uses
|
|
.Xr ssh 1
|
|
to log into a remote machine (presumably using a login password,
|
|
so password authentication should be enabled, unless you've done some
|
|
clever use of multiple identities). It assembles a list of one or more
|
|
fingerprints (as described below) and tries to log in with each key, to
|
|
see if any of them are already installed (of course, if you are not using
|
|
.Xr ssh-agent 1
|
|
this may result in you being repeatedly prompted for pass-phrases).
|
|
It then assembles a list of those that failed to log in, and using ssh,
|
|
enables logins with those keys on the remote server. By default it adds
|
|
the keys by appending them to the remote user's
|
|
.Pa ~/.ssh/authorized_keys
|
|
(creating the file, and directory, if necessary). It is also capable
|
|
of detecting if the remote system is a NetScreen, and using its
|
|
.Ql set ssh pka-dsa key ...
|
|
command instead.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The options are as follows:
|
|
.Bl -tag -width Ds
|
|
.It Fl i Ar identity_file
|
|
Use only the key(s) contained in
|
|
.Ar identity_file
|
|
(rather than looking for identities via
|
|
.Xr ssh-add 1
|
|
or in the
|
|
.Ic default_ID_file ) .
|
|
If the filename does not end in
|
|
.Pa .pub
|
|
this is added. If the filename is omitted, the
|
|
.Ic default_ID_file
|
|
is used.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
Note that this can be used to ensure that the keys copied have the
|
|
comment one prefers and/or extra options applied, by ensuring that the
|
|
key file has these set as preferred before the copy is attempted.
|
|
.It Fl f
|
|
Forced mode: doesn't check if the keys are present on the remote server.
|
|
This means that it does not need the private key. Of course, this can result
|
|
in more than one copy of the key being installed on the remote system.
|
|
.It Fl n
|
|
do a dry-run. Instead of installing keys on the remote system simply
|
|
prints the key(s) that would have been installed.
|
|
.It Fl h , Fl ?
|
|
Print Usage summary
|
|
.It Fl p Ar port , Fl o Ar ssh_option
|
|
These two options are simply passed through untouched, along with their
|
|
argument, to allow one to set the port or other
|
|
.Xr ssh 1
|
|
options, respectively.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
Rather than specifying these as command line options, it is often better to use (per-host) settings in
|
|
.Xr ssh 1 Ns 's
|
|
configuration file:
|
|
.Xr ssh_config 5 .
|
|
.El
|
|
.Pp
|
|
Default behaviour without
|
|
.Fl i ,
|
|
is to check if
|
|
.Ql ssh-add -L
|
|
provides any output, and if so those keys are used. Note that this results in
|
|
the comment on the key being the filename that was given to
|
|
.Xr ssh-add 1
|
|
when the key was loaded into your
|
|
.Xr ssh-agent 1
|
|
rather than the comment contained in that file, which is a bit of a shame.
|
|
Otherwise, if
|
|
.Xr ssh-add 1
|
|
provides no keys contents of the
|
|
.Ic default_ID_file
|
|
will be used.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The
|
|
.Ic default_ID_file
|
|
is the most recent file that matches:
|
|
.Pa ~/.ssh/id*.pub ,
|
|
(excluding those that match
|
|
.Pa ~/.ssh/*-cert.pub )
|
|
so if you create a key that is not the one you want
|
|
.Nm
|
|
to use, just use
|
|
.Xr touch 1
|
|
on your preferred key's
|
|
.Pa .pub
|
|
file to reinstate it as the most recent.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
.Sh EXAMPLES
|
|
If you have already installed keys from one system on a lot of remote
|
|
hosts, and you then create a new key, on a new client machine, say,
|
|
it can be difficult to keep track of which systems on which you've
|
|
installed the new key. One way of dealing with this is to load both
|
|
the new key and old key(s) into your
|
|
.Xr ssh-agent 1 .
|
|
Load the new key first, without the
|
|
.Fl c
|
|
option, then load one or more old keys into the agent, possibly by
|
|
ssh-ing to the client machine that has that old key, using the
|
|
.Fl A
|
|
option to allow agent forwarding:
|
|
.Pp
|
|
.D1 user@newclient$ ssh-add
|
|
.D1 user@newclient$ ssh -A old.client
|
|
.D1 user@oldl$ ssh-add -c
|
|
.D1 No ... prompt for pass-phrase ...
|
|
.D1 user@old$ logoff
|
|
.D1 user@newclient$ ssh someserver
|
|
.Pp
|
|
now, if the new key is installed on the server, you'll be allowed in
|
|
unprompted, whereas if you only have the old key(s) enabled, you'll be
|
|
asked for confirmation, which is your cue to log back out and run
|
|
.Pp
|
|
.D1 user@newclient$ ssh-copy-id -i someserver
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The reason you might want to specify the -i option in this case is to
|
|
ensure that the comment on the installed key is the one from the
|
|
.Pa .pub
|
|
file, rather than just the filename that was loaded into your agent.
|
|
It also ensures that only the id you intended is installed, rather than
|
|
all the keys that you have in your
|
|
.Xr ssh-agent 1 .
|
|
Of course, you can specify another id, or use the contents of the
|
|
.Xr ssh-agent 1
|
|
as you prefer.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
Having mentioned
|
|
.Xr ssh-add 1 Ns 's
|
|
.Fl c
|
|
option, you might consider using this whenever using agent forwarding
|
|
to avoid your key being hijacked, but it is much better to instead use
|
|
.Xr ssh 1 Ns 's
|
|
.Ar ProxyCommand
|
|
and
|
|
.Fl W
|
|
option,
|
|
to bounce through remote servers while always doing direct end-to-end
|
|
authentication. This way the middle hop(s) don't get access to your
|
|
.Xr ssh-agent 1 .
|
|
A web search for
|
|
.Ql ssh proxycommand nc
|
|
should prove enlightening (N.B. the modern approach is to use the
|
|
.Fl W
|
|
option, rather than
|
|
.Xr nc 1 ) .
