How to set up your ssh access
=============================
Setting up your ssh access will depend on whether you're using your PGP
Auth subkey for ssh purposes, a FIDO2 key, or if you were issued a
private key from kernel.org.
If you received a ssh private key from kernel.org
-------------------------------------------------
Follow this procedure if you received an encrypted tarball containing the SSH
private key to use for accessing your kernel.org account. Place that private
key into your ``~/.ssh`` directory, e.g.::
cp korg-username ~/.ssh/id_korg
You can change the automatically generated key passphrase using ``ssh-keygen
-p``.
.. important:: You should always keep your ssh key protected by a passphrase.
Add the following entries into your .ssh/config::
Host gitolite.kernel.org
User git
IdentityFile ~/.ssh/id_korg
IdentitiesOnly yes
ClearAllForwardings yes
ControlPath ~/.ssh/cm-%r@%h:%p
ControlMaster auto
ControlPersist 1H
# Helps behind some NAT-ing routers
ServerAliveInterval 60
If we used your PGP Authentication subkey
-----------------------------------------
If we found an Authentication (**[A]**) subkey on your PGP key, then we have
set up your access to use that key, instead of creating new ssh private keys.
This is what you need to do to configure your ssh client to use that subkey:
Add this to your ``.bashrc``::
export SSH_AUTH_SOCK=$(gpgconf --list-dirs agent-ssh-socket)
You will need to kill the existing gpg-agent process and start a new login
session for the changes to take effect::
$ killall gpg-agent
$ bash
$ ssh-add -L
The very first entry in the output should be the ssh public key derived from
your PGP Auth subkey -- it should have "``cardno:XXXXXXXX``" at the end in the
comment section.
Now add this to your .ssh/config::
Host gitolite.kernel.org
User git
ClearAllForwardings yes
ControlPath ~/.ssh/cm-%r@%h:%p
ControlMaster auto
ControlPersist 1H
# Helps behind some NAT-ing routers
ServerAliveInterval 60
To verify if everything is working, run ``ssh git@gitolite.kernel.org
help``.
If you sent in your FIDO2 ssh key
---------------------------------
You should just need the following in your .ssh/config::
Host gitolite.kernel.org
User git
IdentityFile ~/.ssh/id_ed25519_sk
IdentitiesOnly yes
ClearAllForwardings yes
ControlPath ~/.ssh/cm-%r@%h:%p
ControlMaster auto
ControlPersist 1H
# Helps behind some NAT-ing routers
ServerAliveInterval 60
To verify if everything is working, run ``ssh git@gitolite.kernel.org
help``.
.. note::
If your FIDO2 device is protected by a PIN, you may get an error
saying that "agent refused operation." This can be fixed by adding
``IdentityAgent none`` to the above section.
SSH host fingerprints
---------------------
Your kernel.org account grants you access to gitolite.kernel.org, which
you will use both for accessing your git trees (see
:doc:`gitolite/index`) and for uploading tarball releases (see
:doc:`kup`).
