NAME

  ssh_externalkeys - Describes the external key providers that can be used
  with ssh2 software


DESCRIPTION

  For applications capable of using external keys, two strings must be
  specified:

    ·  The provider name

    ·  The initialization string for the provider
  These strings can be given on the command line or in the configuration
  file, depending on the application.

  There are two different external key providers:

  accession
	  Accesses keys through the ssh-accession application. The only valid
	  keyword for the initialization string is accession_path(path). The
	  path should point to the communications socket of accession.

	  initialization string should contain the name of the library.
