safesh is an authentication manager for OpenSSH. By automatically creating
keys and starting ssh-agents, it makes it (fairly) convenient to use one key for each host pair (authenticator and authenticatee), it avoids authentication theft by the hosts you connect to with SSH.

+.Sh NAME
+.Nm safesh
+.Nd safe key manager for OpenSSH
+.Sh SYNOPSIS
+.Nm
+.Op Ar host
+.Op Ar -- ssh-parameters ...
+.Sh DESCRIPTION
+.Nm
+automatically creates one DSA key (called an identity) for each host you
+connect to, and store this in a separate agent for each host.
+It is also capable of adding keys for other hosts to this agent, so you can
+use it for restricted forwarded of authentication.
+Because each host use its own
+.Xr ssh-agent 1 ,
+the hosts you forward authentication to can only get at the authentication for
+the hosts you specifically say it should be able to get at.
+
+When run,
+.Nm
+.Bl -enum
+.It
+Normalizes the hostname you are talking about, using the $HOME/.safesh/map file.
+.It
+Checks if the host has an ssh dsa key in $HOME/.safesh, and creates one using
+.Xr ssh-keygen 1
+if it does not.
+The DSA key is stored in $HOME/.safesh/$HOST/dsa_id.
+You will be asked for a passphrase when the key is created.
+Note that if you use the same passphrase for all
+.Nm
+keys, you will only be asked for the passphrase once per host you connect to.
+If you use different passphrases, you will be asked once per forwarded key
+for each host you connect to (after a machine startup.)
+.It
+Checks if you have the
+.Xr ssh-agent 1
+for this host running, and starts it if not.
+.It
+Checks what keys you are supposed to have active when connecting to this host
+(the key for the host and any keys listed in $HOME/.safesh/$HOST/extra_keys),
+and which of these are missing from the active agent.
+.It
+If any identities were missing from the agent, it executes
+.Xr ssh-add 1
+to add them to the agent.
+.It
+Executes
+.Xr ssh 1
+with either $HOST or the extra command line supplied by the user.
+.El
+
+.Sh BASIC CONCEPT DESCRIPTION
+.Nm
+is an authentication manager for OpenSSH.
+It is an attempt at making it easy to use the built-in authentication features
+of OpenSSH securely.
+By default, the SSH security model is that all hosts the
+user connect to are trusted, and are given complete access - including the
+ability to authenticate as the user towards other hosts if the user is running
+.Xr ssh-agent 1 .
+OpenSSH has improved this security model somewhat by not forwarding ssh
+authentication by default, but still allows the host that you connect to
+to grab your credentials and authenticate as you to anybody else when you
+do authentication forwarding to it.
+
+
+.Sh NAME REPLACEMENT
+.Bl -tag -width "$HOME/.safesh" -compact
+.It Pa $HOME
+is replaced with the path your home directory,
+$HOST is replaced with the name of the host you are

+.It Pa $HOST
+is replaced with the name of the host you are running
+.Nm
+towards.
+This is the machine you are
+.Xr ssh 1 ing
+into.
+.It Pa $YOURHOST
+is replaced with the name of the host you are running
+.Nm
+on, as output by
+.Xr hostname 1 .
+This is the name of the machine you are
+.Xr ssh 1 ing
+from.
+The use of $YOURHOST makes
+.Nm
+safe to use with NFS-mounted home directories.
+.It Pa $AUTHTARGET
+is replaced with the authentication target for an authentication forwarding.
+This is
+.Pa not
+the same as $HOST.
+$AUTHTARGET is a machine you are
+.Xr ssh 1 ing

+.Pa from
+$HOST.

+
+.It Pa $HOME/.safesh/map
+Mapping file for

+describing how to map names to their canonical form.
+This is usually used to map short names to their long form.
+The format of the file is one mapping per line, what it is mapped from as the
+first word, what it is mapped to as the second.
+
+It is also possible to use this to map DNS names to their safe form by having
+the name of the host as the first parameter, and the name of the host with a
+period (.) at the end as the second parameter.
+E.g, "freefall.freebsd.org freefall.freebsd.org."

+To connect to $HOST using

+to the end of $HOME/.ssh/authorized_keys2.
+Automatically generated on first connect to a host with
+.Nm .
+
+.It Pa $HOME/.safesh/$HOST/$AUTHTARGET
+Private key for use when $HOST authenticates towards $AUTHTARGET.
+This is used in preference to $HOME/.safesh/$AUTHTARGET/dsa_id for authentication
+forwarding through $HOST to $AUTHTARGET.
+The file is only used if $AUTHTARGET is listed in $HOME/.safesh/$HOST/extra_keys.
+This file is not generated automatically by
+.Nm .
+It is only present if you have generated it using
+.Xr ssh-keygen 1 .
+Note that it is usually more than useless (can pose a security risk) to copy a
+key used for other authentication to this location.
+
+The use of explict authentication files for authentication forwarding is
+primarily for protection against the case where the machine you run
+.Nm
+on is compromised.
+Using this file, you can use a separate passphrase from the one used for the
+key for connecting directly to $AUTHTARGET; that key need not even exist.
+By using IP restrictions in the authorized_keys file for the key, you can make
+sure that the host
+.Nm
+runs on cannot connect to $AUTHTARGET using the authentication forwarding
+key.
+The use of a separate forwarding key can also be used in combination with a
+modified SSH to log which key was used where, and thus track key propagation.
+
+.It Pa $HOME/.safesh/$HOST/$AUTHTARGET.pub

+Each line in the file is first attempted matched against the host database in
+$HOME/.safesh/.
+If a key exists here,

+attempts to add that.
+Otherwise, it first tries to look for a file of this name relative to /, then
+relative to $HOME.

+.Sh MISSING FEATURES
+The present version of
+.Nm
+does to the best of the author's knowledge work correctly in what it does.
+However, there are a number of features that would make it easier to securely handle
+ssh authentication.
+
+.Bl -tag -width "mmmm" -compact
+.It Pa Two-step secure SSH with an untrusted host in the middle
+It is possible to use the port forwarding capability of ssh to forward
+authentication through another server - without allowing the other server to
+indepently authenticate to a third party, and without allowing it to see
+what is going on in your connection.
+This is based on just forwarding a tunnel through the untrusted host, and
+doing direct authentication to the server on the other side.
+With the present version of OpenSSH, this has the problem of leaving the
+actual port forwarding open while the tunnel is open - allowing other users to
+set up their own tunnels, and weakening another side of the security model.
+
+.It Pa Read out fingerprints
+.Nm
+should make it trivial to retrieve the fingerprint for
+.Bl -enum
+.It
+The host it is running on.
+This must presently done with "ssh-keygen -l /etc/ssh/ssh_host_key.pub" (to get
+the fingerprint for SSH 1) and "ssh-keygen -l -f /etc/ssh/ssh_host_dsa_key"
+(for SSH 2).
+.It
+Other hosts, as registered in the known_host file on the host it is running
+on.
+This must presently be done by manual inspection.
+.El
+
+.It Pa Merge known_hosts
+.Nm
+should make it trivial to merge known_hosts and known_hosts2 with ones from
+another host, including retrieving and uploading known_hosts as appropriate.
+
+.It Pa Manage .ssh/authorized_keys2
+.Nm
+should be able to automatically add/remove keys from the authorized_keys2 file
+on other machines, to make the entire
+.Nm
+process self-contained.
+
+.It Pa Manage setup of key limitations
+When managing authorized_keys2, it is also reasonable to manage key limitation
+in this.
+IP restrictions ("from=") should be handled to make it easy to create setups
+where the local machine do not have direct access to a target.
+Command restrictions etc would be good to have just for completeness.
+
+.It Pa Emulate the entire ssh syntax
+Presently, the
+.Nm
+command has a fairly weird syntax.
+This is because it is a fairly quick hack, just made to be usable.
+Later, it would be nice to rewrite it to be fully compatible with
+.Xr ssh 1 .
+This would allow use as a drop-in replacement.
+
+.It Pa Description of the trust/threath/security model
+It would be nice to have a complete description of the normal SSH threath model
+as well as the
+.Nm
+threath model, in order to make people fully conscious of their own model.
+
+.It Pa Emulate scp
+.Xr scp 1
+is a very useful command.
+Unfortunately, it is almost unusable along with safesh, unless you use the
+activeagent files (preferably along with running all of this in a subshell, so
+you do not get extra authentication keys when you are not planning to.)
