How to use sshd_config - PermitUserEnvironment option
- by laks
I have client1 and client2 both are linux machines.
From client1:
client1$ssh root@client2 "env"
it displays list of ssh variables from client2.
Things I did on client2:
I want to add new variable to client2 . So I edited sshd_config to
PermitUserEnvironment yes
and created a file environment under ssh with following entry
Hi=Hello
then restart sshd
/etc/init.d/sshd
Now from client1 trying the same command
client1$ssh root@client2 "env"
didn't provide the new variable "Hi".
