DESCRIPTION

This module provides a configuration editor (and models) for the configuration files of OpenSSH. (/etc/ssh/sshd_config, /etc/ssh/ssh_config and ~/.ssh/config).

This module can also be used to modify safely the content of these configuration files from a Perl program.

Once this module is installed, you can edit /etc/ssh/sshd_config with (as root) :

# cme edit sshd

To edit /etc/ssh/ssh_config, run (as root):

# cme edit ssh

To edit ~/.ssh/config, run as a normal user:

$ cme edit ssh

user interfaces

As mentioned in cme, several user interfaces are available with edit subcommand:

• A graphical interface is proposed by default if Config::Model::TkUI is installed.

• A Curses interface with option cme edit ssh -ui curses if Config::Model::CursesUI is installed.

• A Shell like interface with option cme edit ssh -ui shell.
