NAME

       tinysshd - Tiny SSH daemon

SYNOPSIS

       tinysshd [ options ] keydir

DESCRIPTION

       tinysshd is a minimalistic SSH server which implements only a subset of SSHv2 features.

       tinysshd  supports  only  secure  cryptography  (minimum 128-bit security, protected against cache-timing
       attacks)

       tinysshd doesn't implement unnecessary features (such as SSH1 protocol, compression, ...)

       tinysshd doesn't implement older crypto (such as RSA, DSA, HMAC-MD5, HMAC-SHA1, 3DES, RC4, ...)

       tinysshd doesn't implement unsafe features (such as password or hostbased authentication)

       tinysshd doesn't use dynamic memory allocation (no allocation failures, etc.)

OPTIONS

       -q     no error messages

       -Q     print error messages (default)

       -v     print extra information

       -s     enable state-of-the-art crypto  -  ssh-ed25519,  curve25519-sha256,  chacha20-poly1305@openssh.com
              (default)

       -S     disable state-of-the-art crypto

       -p     enable      post-quantum      crypto      -      TODO,     sntrup4591761x25519-sha512@tinyssh.org,
              chacha20-poly1305@openssh.com (default)

       -P     disable post-quantum crypto

       -l     use syslog instead of standard error output (useful for running from inetd)

       -L     don't use syslog, use standard error output (default)

       -x name=command
              add subsystem command (e.g.: sftp=/usr/libexec/openssh/sftp-server)

       keydir directory containing TinySSH keys, typically /etc/tinyssh/sshkeydir

AUTHORIZATION

       tinysshd supports only public-key authorization via AuthorizedKeysFile ~/.ssh/authorized_keys. Each  line
       of the file contains one key in format "keytype base64-encoded-key comment".  tinyssh supports only "ssh-
       ed25519" keytype.

       ~/.ssh/authorized_keys example:
         ssh-ed25519 AAAAC3NzaC1lZDI1NTE5AAAAILV5AGhGQ1QVXjBWhTKJP3vrqE3isL4ivisBailQ14gS comment
