Configure the SSH Client

  1. Generate a host key pair on the client system:

    $ SSH_AGENT
    $ SSH_KEYGEN "-P" TCPIP$SSH_DEVICE:[TCPIP$SSH.SSH2]HOSTKEY
    

    This creates:

    TCPIP$SSH_DEVICE:[TCPIP$SSH.SSH2]HOSTKEY
    TCPIP$SSH_DEVICE:[TCPIP$SSH.SSH2]HOSTKEY.PUB
    
  2. Enable host-based authentication. Edit the file TCPIP$SSH_DEVICE:[TCPIP$SSH.SSH2]SSH2_CONFIG and change:

    # AllowedAuthentications hostbased,publickey,password
    

    to:

    AllowedAuthentications hostbased
