with openssh tree to ease future upgrade. re-do local changes, including: - prototype pedants - IgnoreRootRhosts - login.conf user validation some of the local changes that weren't used are omitted for now. we may need to revisit those afterwards. it adds "sftp".

.Sh DESCRIPTION
|
|
.Nm
|
|
is a utility for gathering the public ssh host keys of a number of
|
|
hosts. It was designed to aid in building and verifying
|
|
.Pa ssh_known_hosts
|
|
files.
|
|
.Nm
|
|
provides a minimal interface suitable for use by shell and perl
|
|
scripts.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
.Nm
|
|
uses non-blocking socket I/O to contact as many hosts as possible in
|
|
parallel, so it is very efficient. The keys from a domain of 1,000
|
|
hosts can be collected in tens of seconds, even when some of those
|
|
hosts are down or do not run ssh. You do not need login access to the
|
|
machines you are scanning, nor does does the scanning process involve
|
|
any encryption.
|
|
.Sh SECURITY
|
|
If you make an ssh_known_hosts file using
|
|
.Nm
|
|
without verifying the keys, you will be vulnerable to
|
|
.I man in the middle
|
|
attacks.
|
|
On the other hand, if your security model allows such a risk,
|
|
.Nm
|
|
can help you detect tampered keyfiles or man in the middle attacks which
|
|
have begun after you created your ssh_known_hosts file.
|
|
.Sh OPTIONS
|
|
.Bl -tag -width Ds
|
|
.It Fl t
|
|
Set the timeout for connection attempts. If
|
|
.Pa timeout
|
|
seconds have elapsed since a connection was initiated to a host or since the
|
|
last time anything was read from that host, then the connection is
|
|
closed and the host in question considered unavailable. Default is 5
|
|
seconds.
|
|
.It Fl f
|
|
Read hosts or
|
|
.Pa addrlist namelist
|
|
pairs from this file, one per line.
|
|
If
|
|
.Pa -
|
|
is supplied instead of a filename,
|
|
.Nm
|
|
will read hosts or
|
|
.Pa addrlist namelist
|
|
pairs from the standard input.

|
.Sh BUGS
|
|
It generates "Connection closed by remote host" messages on the consoles
|
|
of all the machines it scans.
|
|
This is because it opens a connection to the ssh port, reads the public
|
|
key, and drops the connection as soon as it gets the key.
