openssh ======= Install and configure an openssh server. .. note:: See the full `Salt Formulas installation and usage instructions `_. Available states ================ .. contents:: :local: ``openssh`` ----------- Installs the ``openssh`` server package and service. ``openssh.auth`` ----------- Manages SSH certificates for users. ``openssh.auth_map`` ----------- Same functionality as openssh.auth but with a simplified Pillar syntax. Plays nicely with `Pillarstack `_. ``openssh.banner`` ------------------ Installs a banner that users see when SSH-ing in. ``openssh.client`` ------------------ Installs the openssh client package. ``openssh.config`` ------------------ Installs the ssh daemon configuration file included in this formula (under "openssh/files"). This configuration file is populated by values from pillar. ``pillar.example`` results in the generation of the default ``sshd_config`` file on Debian Wheezy. It is highly recommended ``PermitRootLogin`` is added to pillar so root login will be disabled. ``openssh.known_hosts`` ----------------------- Manages the site-wide ssh_known_hosts file and fills it with the public SSH host keys of all minions. You can restrict the set of minions whose keys are listed by using the pillar data ``openssh:known_hosts:target`` and ``openssh:known_hosts:expr_form`` (those fields map directly to the corresponding attributes of the ``mine.get`` function). The Salt mine is used to share the public SSH host keys, you must thus configure it accordingly on all hosts that must export their keys. Two mine functions are required, one that exports the keys (one key per line, as they are stored in ``/etc/ssh/ssh_host_*_key.pub``) and one that defines the public hostname that the keys are associated to. Here's the way to setup those functions through pillar:: # Required for openssh.known_hosts mine_functions: public_ssh_host_keys: mine_function: cmd.run cmd: cat /etc/ssh/ssh_host_*_key.pub python_shell: True public_ssh_hostname: mine_function: grains.get key: id The above example assumes that the minion identifier is a valid DNS name that can be used to connect to the host. If that's not the case, you might want to use the ``fqdn`` grain instead of the ``id`` one. The above example also uses the default mine function names used by this formula. If you have to use other names, then you should indicate the names to use in pillar keys ``openssh:known_hosts:mine_keys_function`` and ``openssh:known_hosts:mine_hostname_function``. You can also integrate alternate DNS names of the various hosts in the ssh_known_hosts files. You just have to list all the alternate DNS names as a list in the ``openssh:known_hosts:aliases`` pillar key. Whenever the IPv4 or IPv6 behind one of those DNS entries matches an IPv4 or IPv6 behind the official hostname of a minion, the alternate DNS name will be associated to the minion's public SSH host key. ``openssh.moduli`` ----------------------- Manages the system wide ``/etc/ssh/moduli`` file.
