SSH Reference Manual
o FALSE: file will not be created as audited file.
Considerations
• See parameter "SSHCTL
" for details about the user data base.
Default
If omitted, SSH2 will use a value of TRUE.
Example
SSHCTLAUDIT FALSE
SSHKEEPALIVETIME
Use this parameter to control the frequency of SSH "keepalive" messages.
Parameter Syntax
SSHKEEPALIVETIME seconds
Arguments
seconds
Defines the idle time in seconds after which an SSH_MSG_IGNORE message is sent to the remote client. A
value of 0 disables sending SSH_MSG_IGNORE messages.
Default
The default is 60 (1 minute).
Considerations
• SSHKEEPALIVETIME controls "keepalive" messages on the secure shell protocol level, while
SOCKETKEEPALIVE
controls whether keepalive messages should be enabled on TCP socket level.
• Sending these messages on idle sessions is an additional measure of protection against advanced traffic analysis
techniques.
STOREDPASSWORDSONLY
Use this SSH2 parameter to disable the prompt for password during user authentication with method password in
outgoing connections, assuming that the password is stored in the database.
Parameter Syntax
STOREDPASSWORDSONLY TRUE|FALSE
Arguments
TRUE|FALSE
Specifies whether password prompt is suppressed or not. Following are the possible arguments:
o TRUE: Password prompt is suppressed. If the password cannot be found in the SSHCTL database, then the
password authentication will fail.
o FALSE: Users will be prompted for the password if that was not found in the SSHCTL database.
Default
The default is FALSE. The default behavior is therefore the same as before this parameter was introduced.
