Screencast demo usage

Simple usage (single SSH session)

Advanced usage (multiple SSH sessions from a sub-shell)

Using for GitHub SSH authentication (via `trezor-git` utility)

Installation

First, make sure that the latest trezorlib Python package is installed correctly (at least v0.6.6):

$ apt-get install python-dev libusb-1.0-0-dev libudev-dev
$ pip install Cython trezor

Then, install the latest trezor_agent package:

$ pip install trezor_agent

Finally, verify that you are running the latest TREZOR firmware version (at least v1.3.4):

$ trezorctl get_features
vendor: "bitcointrezor.com"
major_version: 1
minor_version: 3
patch_version: 4
...

Public key generation

Run:

/tmp $ trezor-agent ssh.hostname.com -v > hostname.pub
2015-09-02 15:03:18,929 INFO         getting "ssh://ssh.hostname.com" public key from Trezor...
2015-09-02 15:03:23,342 INFO         disconnected from Trezor
/tmp $ cat hostname.pub
ecdsa-sha2-nistp256 AAAAE2VjZHNhLXNoYTItbmlzdHAyNTYAAAAIbmlzdHAyNTYAAABBBGSevcDwmT+QaZPUEWUUjTeZRBICChxMKuJ7dRpBSF8+qt+8S1GBK5Zj8Xicc8SHG/SE/EXKUL2UU3kcUzE7ADQ= ssh://ssh.hostname.com

Append hostname.pub contents to ~/.ssh/authorized_keys configuration file at ssh.hostname.com, so the remote server would allow you to login using the corresponding private key signature.

Usage

Run:

/tmp $ trezor-agent ssh.hostname.com -v -c
2015-09-02 15:09:39,782 INFO         getting "ssh://ssh.hostname.com" public key from Trezor...
