SSH Transport
The SSH Transport is a full-featured SSH daemon and implements the standard ssh modes including
The SSH transport is compliant with the ubiquitous openSSH and has been fully tested with openSSH compatible clients.
Design Principles
The SSH transport infrastructure allows remote ssh clients to issue resource requests into the NetKernel address space. Resource requests can
be made through a shell or as remote commands, and even as scp "file" transfers.
Authentication
The SSH transport has a pluggable design using configurable declarative requests that enable user supplied
public key and password authentication services to be invoked for new client sessions.
A standard openSSH compatible public key authentication service is provided which reads a user's ~/.ssh/authorized_keys to authenticate PKI
sessions.
