Server Configuration Files

The following files located in the /etc/ssh2 directory are used to store the server configuration information:

• /etc/ssh2/sshd2_config: the main server configuration file
• /etc/ssh2/ssh_certd_config: the Certificate Validator configuration file
• /etc/ssh2/hostkey: the default server host private key
• /etc/ssh2/hostkey.pub: the default server host public key
• /etc/ssh2/random_seed: the random number seed file for cryptographic operations
• /etc/ssh2/knownhosts: the global directory for remote client host public keys that are trusted for host-based authentication

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

• $HOME/.ssh2/knownhosts: the user-specific directory for remote client host public keys that are trusted for host-based authentication
• $HOME/.ssh2/authorization: the default authorization file for user public keys
