Elements

StrictHostkeyChecking - boolean
References Notes

This parameter specifies the behavior for hosts that have not previously been involved in a file transfer.

  • By default it is not necessary that the user "known hosts" files contain the host key which corresponds to the value "false".
  • If this parameter is set to "true", the host key is expected in the user "known hosts" files and YADE will refuse to connect to hosts whose host key cannot be found. This setting forces the user to manually add new hosts to the "known hosts" files.

StrictHostkeyChecking

If this parameter is set to "yes", the application will not automatically add host keys to the $HOME/.ssh/known_hosts file, and will refuse to connect to hosts whose host key has changed. This parameter forces the user to manually add all new hosts. If this property is set to "no", the application will automatically add a new host key to the user known hosts files. If this parameter is set to "ask", new host keys will be added to the user known host files only after the user has confirmed that is what they really want to do, and the application will refuse to connect to hosts whose host key has changed. Setting this parameter to "yes" provides maximum protection against Trojan horse attacks.
