Client Configuration Files

The SSH Tectia Server for IBM z/OS client and server configuration formats are based on the SSH Tectia Client and Server 4.4. The following files located in the /etc/ssh2 directory are used to store client configuration information:

• /etc/ssh2/ssh2_config: the global client configuration file
• /etc/ssh2/hostkeys: the global directory for known remote server host keys

The user-specific configurations are stored in each user's $HOME/.ssh2 directory:

• $HOME/.ssh2/ssh2_config: the user-specific client configuration file
• $HOME/.ssh2/hostkeys: the user-specific directory for known remote server host keys
• $HOME/.ssh2/identification: the identification file used with public-key authentication
• $HOME/.ssh2/random_seed: the random number seed file for cryptographic operations
