The Server or client could terminate the connection immediately when the peer does not know the secret. So in case of a security Problem the administrator could set an option for ssh and sshd like LockDownSharedSecret to a random password and share it with other Trustworthy Administrators, who are involved in fixing the problem. My ideas how to use this shared secret: How is this different to configuring /etc/securetty and tunnelling Telnet over SSH Port Forwarding which I don't recommend BTW? -- Regards, Christian Heinrich http://cmlh.id.au/contact _______________________________________________ openssh-unix-dev mailing list openssh-unix-dev@xxxxxxxxxxx https://lists.mindrot.org/mailman/listinfo/openssh-unix-dev
