ssh-keysign —
ssh-keysign |
ssh-keysign is used by ssh(1) to
access the local host keys during hostbased authentication with SSH protocol
version 2. Since the host keys are readable only by root
ssh-keysign must be setuid root.
ssh-keysign is not intended to be invoked by the user,
but from ssh(1). See ssh(1) and
sshd(8) for more information about hostbased authentication.
ssh-keysign first appeared in OpenBSD
3.2.
