ssh <user>@server -L <localPort>:<server>:<port>

ssh <user>@server -D <localIP>:<localPort>

ssh-keygen -t ed25519 -C "<key comment>" -f ~/.ssh/<keyname>

-t = algorithm. Possible values: rsa, dsa, ecdsa, ed25519
-C = comment at the end of public key file
-f = filename
-b = bitrate. For rsa and ecdsa.

Prerequsites:

• openssh v8+
• yubikey fw v5.2.3+
• libfido2 lib installed

Check openssh version.

ssh -V

Check yubikey version.

lsusb -v 2>/dev/null | grep -A2 Yubico | grep "bcdDevice" | awk '{print $2}'

Create the key-pair

ssh-keygen -t ed25519-sk -C "<key comment>" -f ~/.ssh/<keyname>

edit ~/.ssh/config and add section like the following

Host ssh.dev.azure.com
  HostName ssh.dev.azure.com
  IdentityFile ~/.ssh/<publicKeyFile>
  IdentitiesOnly yes

Edit /etc/ssh/sshd_config and add the lines (uncomment port 22)

Port 22
Port 1234

Restart sshd to activate changes. You will not be able to use the custom port yet though as SElinux is blocking it.

semanage port -t ssh_port_t -p tcp 1234

semanage port -l|grep ssh_port_t
