## Crypto Hardware 

# UseCryptoHardware specifies whether hardware support is wanted for certain
# algorithms. The support levels are
#   no          do not use crypto hardware
#   yes         use crypto hardware if available
#   must        use crypto hardware, do not fall back to software 
# 
# The level may be given alone as a default for all algorithms or 
# together with an algorithm. The algorithm names that may 
# be used are:
#   rng         random number generator
#   sha1        SHA1 digest algorithm
#   aes         AES
#   3des        Triple DES
#
# UseCryptoHardware is a comma-delimited list of algorithm:support level
# pairs. It may start with a sole support level
#
# E.g. Must have support for 3des and sha1, all other should use software
#       UseCryptoHardware               no,3des:must,sha1:must
#
UseCryptoHardware               yes
#
# To enable FIPS certification, use

# Ignoring certain restrictions during user login: password expiration
# on AIX, HP-UX in trusted mode and Windows.

#       IgnoreLoginRestrictions.PasswordExpiration no

# To enable authentication time password changing (instead of the old
# forced command style), uncomment the following line: 

#       AuthPassword.ChangePlugin       ssh-passwd-plugin

# (this will also be used by the "password" submethod in
#  keyboard-interactive).

## Host restrictions

#       AllowHosts              localhost, example\.com, friendly\.example
#
## Next one matches with, for example, taulu.foobar.com, tuoli.com, but
## not tuoli1.com. Note that you have to input string "\." when you want it
## to match only a literal dot. You also have to escape "," when you
## want to use it in the pattern, because otherwise it is considered a list
## separator.
##
##     AllowHosts               t..l.\..*
##
## The following matches any numerical IP address (yes, it is cumbersome)
##
##     AllowHosts               ([[:digit:]]{1\,3}\.){3}[[:digit:]]{1\,3}
##
## Same thing is achieved with the special prefix "\i" in a pattern.
## This means that the pattern is only used to match IP addresses.
##
## Using the above example:
##
##     AllowHosts               \i.*
##
## You can probably see the difference between the two.
##
## Also, you can use subnet masks, by using prefix "\m"
##
##     AllowHosts               \m127.0/8
## and
##     AllowHosts               \m127.0.0.0/24
##
## would match localhost ("127.0.0.1").
##
#       DenyHosts                       evil\.example, aol\.example
#       AllowSHosts                     trusted\.host\.example
#       DenySHosts                      not\.quite\.trusted\.example
#       IgnoreRhosts                    no
#       IgnoreRootRHosts                no
# (the above, if not set, is defaulted to the value of IgnoreRHosts)

## User restrictions
# User and group names must be in uppercase.

#       AllowUsers                      SJ.*,S[[:digit:]]*,S(JL|AMZA)
#       DenyUsers                       SKUUPPA,WAREZDUDE,31373
#       DenyUsers                       DON@example\.org
#       AllowGroups                     STAFF,USERS
#       DenyGroups                      GUEST,ANONYMOUS
#       PermitRootLogin                 yes
#       PermitRootLogin                 nopwd

## Chrooted environment
# User and group names must be in uppercase.

#       ChRootUsers                     ANONYMOUS,FTP,GUEST
#       ChRootGroups                    SFTP,GUEST

## Subsystem definitions

# Subsystems do not have defaults, so this is needed here (uncommented).
#       subsystem-sftp                  sftp-server
        subsystem-sftp                  /opt/tectia/libexec/sft-server-g3
# Also internal SFTP subsystem can be used.
#       subsystem-sftp                  internal://sftp-server

## Subconfiguration
# There are no default subconfiguration files. When specified the last
# obtained keyword value will prevail. Note that the host-specific files
# are read before the user-specific files.
# User and group names must be in uppercase.

# Following matches (from) any host:
#
#      HostSpecificConfig .* /opt/tectia/etc/subconfig/host_ext.example
#
# Following matches to subnet mask:
#
#      HostSpecificConfig \m192.168.0.0/16 /opt/tectia/etc/subconfig/host_int.example
#
# Following matches to users from ssh.com that have two character
# username or username is SJL and belong to group WHEEL or WHEEL[0-9]:
#
#      UserSpecificConfig (..|SJL)%WHEEL[[:digit:]]?@ssh\.com 
#                          /opt/tectia/etc/subconfig/user.example
#
# Following matches to the user ANONYMOUS from any host:
#
#      UserSpecificConfig ANONYMOUS@.* /opt/tectia/etc/subconfig/anonymous.example
