Configure OpenSSH Client if Necessary
The following configuration changes apply to the SSH client. They can improve security parameters relwevant to the client user, e.g. increasing entropy while generating initialization vectors. Note that these changes influence only the default SSH client configuration. Changes in this group can be overridden by the client user by modifying files within the
~/.ssh
directory or by supplying parameters on the command line.
