ssh-sk-helper: OpenSSH helper for FIDO authenticator support

NAME

ssh-sk-helper - OpenSSH helper for FIDO authenticator support

SYNOPSIS

ssh-sk-helper [-v ]

DESCRIPTION

ssh-sk-helper is used by ssh-agent1 to access keys provided by a FIDO authenticator.

ssh-sk-helper is not intended to be invoked by the user, but from ssh-agent1.

A single option is supported:

-v

Verbose mode. Causes ssh-sk-helper to print debugging messages about its progress. This is helpful in debugging problems. Multiple -v options increase the verbosity. The maximum is 3.

Note that ssh-agent1 will automatically pass the -v flag to ssh-sk-helper when it has itself been placed in debug mode.

HISTORY

ssh-sk-helper first appeared in Ox 6.7 .
