NAME

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

SYNOPSIS

ssh-sk-helper [ -v ]

DESCRIPTION

ssh-sk-helper is used by ssh (1), ssh-agent (1), and ssh-keygen (1) to access keys provided by a FIDO authenticator.

ssh-sk-helper is not intended to be invoked directly by the user.

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 (1), ssh-agent (1), and ssh-keygen (1) will automatically pass the -v flag to ssh-sk-helper when they have themselves been placed in debug mode.

SEE ALSO

ssh (1), ssh-agent (1), ssh-keygen (1)

HISTORY

ssh-sk-helper first appeared in OpenBSD 6.7.
