+# Puppet SSH Module
+
+[![Build Status](https://travis-ci.org/duritong/puppet-sshd.png?branch=master)](https://travis-ci.org/duritong/puppet-sshd)
+
+This puppet module manages OpenSSH configuration and services.
+
+**!! Upgrade Notice (05/2015) !!**
+
+The hardened_ssl parameter name was changed to simply 'hardened'.
+
+**!! Upgrade Notice (01/2013) !!**
+
+This module now uses parameterized classes, where it used global variables
+before. So please whatch out before pulling, you need to change the
+class declarations in your manifest !
+
+
+### Dependencies
+
+This module requires puppet => 2.6, and the following modules are required
+pre-dependencies:
+
+- [puppetlabs/stdlib](https://github.com/puppetlabs/puppetlabs-stdlib) >= 2.x
+
+## OpenSSH Server
+
+On a node where you wish to have an openssh server installed, you should
+include
+
+```puppet
+class { 'sshd': }
+```
+
+on that node. If you need to configure any aspects of sshd_config, set the variables before the include. Or you can adjust many parameters:
+
+```puppet
+class { 'sshd':
+ ports => [ 20002 ],
+ permit_root_login => 'no',
+}
+```
+
+See Configurable Variables below for what you can set.
+
+### Nagios
+
+To have nagios checks setup automatically for sshd services, simply set
+`manage_nagios` to `true` for that class. If you want to disable ssh
+nagios checking for a particular node (such as when ssh is firewalled), then you
+can set the class parameter `nagios_check_ssh` to `false` and that node will not be
+monitored.
+
+Nagios will automatically check the ports defined in `ports`, and the
+hostname specified by `nagios_check_ssh_hostname`.
+
+Note that if you need to use some specific logic to decide whether or not to
+create a nagios service check, you should set $manage_nagios to false, and
+use sshd::nagios from within your own manifests. You'll also need to manually
+specify the port to that define. By default, if the $port parameter is not
+specified, it will use the resource name as the port (e.g. if you call it like
+this: `sshd::nagios { '22': }` )
+
+NOTE: this requires that you are using the shared-nagios puppet module which
+supports the nagios native types via `nagios::service`:
+
+https://gitlab.com/shared-puppet-modules-group/sshd
+
+### Firewall
+
+If you wish to have firewall rules setup automatically for you, using shorewall,
+you will need to set: `use_shorewall => true`. The `ports` that you have
+specified will automatically be used.
+
+NOTE: This requires that you are using the shared-shorewall puppet module:
+git://labs.riseup.net/shared-shorewall
+
+
+### Configurable variables
+
+Configuration of sshd is strict, and may not fit all needs, however there are a
+number of variables that you can consider configuring. The defaults are set to
+the distribution shipped sshd_config file defaults.
+
+To set any of these variables, simply set them as variables in your manifests,
+before the class is included, for example:
+
+```puppet
+class {'sshd':
+ listen_address => ['10.0.0.1', '192.168.0.1'],
+ use_pam => yes
+}
+```
+
+If you need to install a version of the ssh daemon or client package other than
+the default one that would be installed by `ensure => installed`, then you can
+set the following variables:
+
+```puppet
+class {'sshd':
+ ensure_version => "1:5.2p2-6"
+}
+```
+
+The following is a list of the currently available variables:
+
+ - `listen_address`
+ specify the addresses sshd should listen on set this to `['10.0.0.1', '192.168.0.1']` to have it listen on both addresses, or leave it unset to listen on all Default: empty -> results in listening on `0.0.0.0`
+ - `allowed_users`
+ list of usernames separated by spaces. set this for example to `"foobar
+ root"` to ensure that only user foobar and root might login. Default: empty
+ -> no restriction is set
+ - `allowed_groups`
+ list of groups separated by spaces. set this for example to `"wheel sftponly"`
+ to ensure that only users in the groups wheel and sftponly might login.
+ Default: empty -> no restriction is set Note: This is set after
+ `allowed_users`, take care of the behaviour if you use these 2 options
+ together.
+ - `use_pam` if you want to use pam or not for authenticaton. Values:
+ - `no` (default)
+ - `yes`
+ - `permit_root_login` If you want to allow root logins or not. Valid values:
+ - `yes`
+ - `no`
+ - `without-password` (default)
+ - `forced-commands-only`
+ - `password_authentication`
+ If you want to enable password authentication or not. Valid values:
+ - `yes`
+ - `no` (default)
+ - `kerberos_authentication`
+ If you want the password that is provided by the user to be validated
+ through the Kerberos KDC. To use this option the server needs a Kerberos
+ servtab which allows the verification of the KDC's identity. Valid values:
+ - `yes`
+ - `no` (default)
+ - `kerberos_orlocalpasswd` If password authentication through Kerberos fails, then the password will be validated via any additional local mechanism. Valid values:
+ - `yes` (default)
+ - `no`
+ - `kerberos_ticketcleanup` Destroy the user's ticket cache file on logout? Valid values:
+ - `yes` (default)
+ - `no`
+ - `gssapi_authentication` Authenticate users based on GSSAPI? Valid values:
+ - `yes`
+ - `no` (default)
+ - `gssapi_cleanupcredentials` Destroy user's credential cache on logout? Valid values:
+ - `yes` (default)
+ - `no`
+ - `challenge_response_authentication` If you want to enable ChallengeResponseAuthentication or not When disabled, s/key passwords are disabled. Valid values:
+ - `yes`
+ - `no` (default)
+ - `tcp_forwarding` If you want to enable TcpForwarding. Valid values:
+ - `yes`
+ - `no` (default)
+ - `x11_forwarding` If you want to enable x11 forwarding. Valid values:
+ - `yes`
+ - `no` (default)
+ - `agent_forwarding` If you want to allow ssh-agent forwarding. Valid values:
+ - `yes`
+ - `no` (default)
+ - `pubkey_authentication` If you want to enable public key authentication. Valid values:
+ - `yes` (default)
+ - `no`
+ - `rsa_authentication` If you want to enable RSA Authentication. Valid values:
+ - `yes`
+ - `no` (default)
+ - `rhosts_rsa_authentication`
+ If you want to enable rhosts RSA Authentication. Valid values:
+ - `yes`
+ - `no` (default)
+ - `hostbased_authentication` If you want to enable `HostbasedAuthentication`. Valid values:
+ - `yes`
+ - `no` (default)
+ - `strict_modes` If you want to set `StrictModes` (check file modes/ownership before accepting login). Valid values:
+ - `yes` (default)
+ - `no`
+ - `permit_empty_passwords`
+ If you want enable PermitEmptyPasswords to allow empty passwords. Valid
+ Values:
+ - `yes`
+ - `no` (default)
+ - `ports` If you want to specify a list of ports other than the default `22`; Default: `[22]`
+ - `authorized_keys_file`
+ Set this to the location of the AuthorizedKeysFile
+ (e.g. `/etc/ssh/authorized_keys/%u`). Default: `AuthorizedKeysFile
+ %h/.ssh/authorized_keys`

+ Use only strong ciphers, MAC, KexAlgorithms, etc.
+ Values:
+ - `no` (default)
+ - `yes`
+ - `print_motd`

+ sftponly usage. Default: empty -> no change of the default
+ - `head_additional_options`
+ Set this to any additional sshd_options which aren't listed above. Anything
+ set here will be added to the beginning of the sshd_config file. This option
+ might be useful to define complicated Match Blocks. This string is going to
+ be included, like it is defined. So take care! Default: empty -> not added.
+ - `tail_additional_options` Set this to any additional sshd_options which aren't listed above. Anything set here will be added to the end of the sshd_config file. This option might be useful to define complicated Match Blocks. This string is going to be included, like it is defined. So take care! Default: empty -> not added.
+ - `shared_ip` Whether the server uses a shared network IP address. If it does, then we don't want it to export an rsa key for its IP address. Values:
+ - `no` (default)
+ - `yes`
+
+
+### Defines and functions
+
+Deploy authorized_keys file with the define `authorized_key`.
+
+Generate a public/private keypair with the ssh_keygen function. For example, the
+following will generate ssh keys and put the different parts of the key into
+variables:
+
+```puppet
+$ssh_keys = ssh_keygen("${$ssh_key_basepath}/backup/keys/${::fqdn}/${backup_host}")
+$public_key = split($ssh_keys[1],' ')
+$sshkey_type => $public_key[0]
+$sshkey => $public_key[1]
+```
+
+## Client
+
+
+On a node where you wish to have the ssh client managed, you can do:
+
+```puppet
+class{'sshd::client':
+
+}
+```
+
+in the node definition. This will install the appropriate package.
