SSH/es

SSH (Secure SHell) es un programa de terminal cifrado que reemplaza la herramienta clásica telnet en los sistemas operativos tipo Unix.

In addition to remote terminal access provided by the main ssh binary, the SSH suite of programs has grown to include other tools such as scp (Secure Copy Program) and sftp (Secure File Transfer Protocol).

Originalmente, SSH no era libre. Sin embargo, hoy la implementación estándar más popular y de-facto de SSH es OpenSSH de OpenBSD ,que viene pre-instalado en Gentoo.

Check install
Most deployments of Gentoo Linux will already have OpenSSH installed on the system. This can be checked by running the ssh command. If it is installed a usage statement should be printed:

If no usage statement is printed ssh is either corrupted or not installed. It is also possible that a user is simply rebuilding OpenSSH to include a new USE configuration. Whatever the case, proceed on to view possible USE settings.

Emerge OpenSSH
After changing the necessary USE flags, do not forget to install (or rebuild) OpenSSH:

Servidor
Add openssh to the default runlevel if this has not been done already:

Start the sshd daemon with:

El servidor OpenSSH se puede controlar como cualquier otro servicio gestionado de OpenRC:

Crear claves
In order to provide a secure shell, cryptographic keys are used to manage the encryption, decryption, and hashing functionalities offered by SSH.

On the first start of the SSH service, system keys will be generated. Keys can be (re)generated using the ssh-keygen command.

To generate the key used for SSH protocol version 1 (which usually is not enabled anymore; it has been deprecated in favor of protocol version 2) use:

Para generar las claves de la versión del protocolo SSH 2 (algoritmos DSA y RSA):

Configuración del servidor
El servidor SSH suele estar configurado en el aunque también es posible realizar una configuración adicional en archivo  de OpenRC, incluyendo el cambio de la ubicación del archivo de configuración. Para obtener información detallada sobre cómo configurar el servidor puede ver el sshd_config man page.

Users should study Sven's OpenSSH guide for a security focused configuration.

Configuración del cliente
The ssh client and related programs (scp, sftp, etc.) can be configured using the following files:

For more information read the manual:

Autenticación sin contraseña
Útil para la administración de servidores git.

Cliente
En el cliente, lance la siguiente orden:

Servidor
Asegúrese de que existe una cuenta para el usuario en el servidor, y luego colocar los clientes  en el archivo.

Prueba de máquina simple
El procedimiento anterior se puede probar a cabo localmente:

Solución de problemas
There are 3 different levels of debug modes that can help troubleshooting issues. With the  option SSH prints debugging messages about its progress. This is helpful in debugging connection, authentication, and configuration problems. Multiple  options increase the verbosity. Maximum verbosity is three levels deep.

Death of long-lived connections
Many internet access devices perform Network Address Translation (NAT), a process that enables devices on a private network such as that typically found in a home or business place to access foreign networks, such as the internet, despite only having a single IP address on that network. Unfortunately, not all NAT devices are created equal, and some of them incorrectly close long-lived, occasional-use TCP connections such as those used by SSH. This is generally observable as a sudden inability to interact with the remote server, even though the ssh</tt> client program has not exited.

In order to resolve the issue, OpenSSH clients and servers can be configured to send a 'keep alive', or invisible message aimed at maintaining and confirming the live status of the link.
 * To enable keep alive for all clients connecting to your local server, set  (or some other value, in seconds) within the  file.
 * To enable keep alive for all servers connected to by your local client, set  (or some other value, in seconds) within the  file.

X11 forwarding, not forwarding, or tunneling
Problem: After having made the necessary changes to the configuration files for permitting X11 forwarding, it is discovered X applications are executing on the server and are not being forwarded to the client.

Solution: What is likely occurring during SSH login into the remote server or host, the  variable is either being unset or is being set after the SSH session sets it.

Test for this scenario perform the following after logging in remotely:

The output should be something similar to  or   using server side   setting. If the usual  is not displayed, check to make sure the   variable within  is not being unset or re-initializing. If it is, remove or comment out any custom initialization of  to prevent the code in  from executing during a SSH login:

A trick that works to complete this task would be to define an alias within the users' file.

Intrusion prevention
SSH is a commonly attacked service. Tools such as sshguard and fail2ban monitor logs and black list remote users who have repeatedly attempted, yet failed to login. Utilize them as needed to secure a frequently attacked system.
