NAME

           authorized-keys-test - Validate a authorized_keys file

SYNOPSIS

           authorized-keys-test ~/.ssh/authorized_keys

DESCRIPTION

       authorized-keys-test reads in the keys of an ssh client authorized_keys file and reports any errors.

OPTIONS

       -v  Verbose mode. Turns on DEBUG instead of INFO.

       -s  Strict  mode. If on, the test insists on properly formatted authorized_keys files and isn't nearly as
           lenient as the sshd daemon's parser.

EXAMPLES

         $ authorized-keys-test ~/.ssh/authorized_keys

         /home/joe/.ssh/authorized_keys ok
         Found 4 keys
           * ssh-2
           * ssh-2
           * ssh-2
           * ssh-2

            # strict mode:
         $ authorized-keys-test -s ~/.ssh/authorized_keys

         AuthorizedKeysFile.pm-69: Key [eme alsdkfj] failed sanity check -- ignored
         AuthorizedKeysFile.pm-71: Strict mode on: Abort
         /home/joe/.ssh/authorized_keys *not* ok
         Found 4 keys
           * ssh-2
           * ssh-2
           * ssh-2
           * ssh-2
