NAME
ssh-sk-helper — OpenSSH helper for FIDO authenticator support
SYNOPSIS
ssh-sk-helper [-v]
DESCRIPTION
ssh-sk-helper is used by ssh(1), ssh-agent(1), and ssh-keygen(1)
to access keys provided by a FIDO authenticator.
ssh-sk-helper is not intended to be invoked directly by the user.
A single option is supported:
-v Verbose mode. Causes ssh-sk-helper to print debugging
messages about its progress. This is helpful in
debugging problems. Multiple -v options increase the
verbosity. The maximum is 3.
Note that ssh(1), ssh-agent(1), and ssh-keygen(1) will
automatically pass the -v flag to ssh-sk-helper when they
have themselves been placed in debug mode.
SEE ALSO
ssh(1), ssh-agent(1), ssh-keygen(1)
HISTORY
ssh-sk-helper first appeared in OpenBSD 6.7.
