.Nm ssh-keysign
.Nm
.Sh DESCRIPTION
.Nm
is used by
.Xr 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
.Nm
must be setuid root.
to access the local host keys and generate the digital signature
required during hostbased authentication with SSH protocol version 2.
.Nm
is not intended to be invoked by the user, but from
.Xr ssh 1 .

.It Pa /etc/ssh/ssh_host_dsa_key, /etc/ssh/ssh_host_rsa_key
These files contain the private parts of the host keys used to
generate the digital signature. They
should be owned by root, readable only by root, and not
accessible to others.
Since they are readable only by root,
.Nm
must be set-uid root if hostbased authentication is used.
