#9536 Client configuration of ssh: Replace sss_ssh_knownhostsproxy with sss_ssh_knownhosts
Closed: fixed 8 months ago by antorres. Opened 11 months ago by frenaud.

SSSD is planning to deprecate the command sss_ssh_knownhostsproxy and replace it with sss_ssh_knownhosts (see ticket sssd #5518 and PR SSSD/7144).

During the client installation, FreeIPA configures either /etc/ssh/ssh_config or /etc/ssh/ssh_config.d/04-ipa.conf (if SSH supports the Include directive) with the directive

ProxyCommand /usr/bin/sss_ssh_knownhostsproxy -p %p %h

If the file /usr/bin/sss_ssh_knownhosts is present, it should be used instead of /usr/bin/sss_ssh_knownhostsproxy.

Upgrade from older versions should also take care of this change.


JFYI: SSSD patch - https://github.com/SSSD/sssd/commit/953c6bee49123625e08e9ec35375d4f539a878da - was just merged, so will be available in next nightly build of sssd-2.10

Metadata Update from @ftrivino:
- Custom field changelog adjusted to Deprecated sss_ssh_knownhostsproxy in favor of sss_ssh_knownhosts. With this update, if /usr/bin/sss_ssh_knownhosts is present, it will be used instead of /usr/bin/sss_ssh_knownhostsproxy. We implemented a mechanism to apply this change when upgrading from older versions, and downgrading from newer versions.
