NAME
amigassh
SSH2 for the Amiga, 68000+. Needs a server that supports the used crypto stuff.
It will work on an unaccelerated Amiga but establishing the connection takes
about one minute. It provides
- amigasshd
- amigassh
- amigascp
- amigasshkeygen
An A3000 will
* create an X25519 key pair in 2s
* verify/verify a signature in ~5s
Expected speed
* A500 ~ 6kB/s
* A3000 ~ 32kB/s
* V4SA ~ 630kB/s
NOTE that this is *NOT* feature complete.

* amigascp fix recognizing userhost
* add more bound checks
* using newest simple library creation for libcryptossh.library
* reduce stack usage again
* more accurate progress indicator
* TAB in sshd shell performs autocompletion
* sshd passes CTRL+C to running task
amigassh V1.22
* added amigascp to copy file from/to remote ssh servers.
amigassh V1.21
* more AES tuning (that's it)
A3000 ~ 32kB/s
V4SA ~ 630kB/s
* remove the missing key file ERROR message
* refactored amigassh, and hopefully it still works...

* removed some debug output
* switched the AES implementation to gain more speed
A3000 ~ 30kB/s
V4SA ~ 580kB/s
* create the lib using a .def file to only export used functions/data
amigassh V1.19
* add support for the public key authentication to client and server.
Note that only unprotected key files do work with amigassh.
* improved AES/GCM encryption speed resulting in higher upload/download rates:
A3000 ~ 20kB/s
V4SA ~ 400kB/s
this twice as fast as before!
amigassh V1.18
* fixed an enforcer hit during library unloading
* reworked terminal I/O handling:
Normal Amiga applications do work on ApolloOS
Stuff from C:bin/ is still broken. /shrug
amigassh V1.17
* added a sftp subsystem to amigasshd: copy files from/to the Amiga.
not available volumes are denied and result into: not found.
An A3000 will copy with ~10kb/s, a Vampire with up to ~180kb/s.
* crypto code moved into the library libcryptossh.library:
The libcryptossh.library was built using my new simple library approach
https://franke.ms/amiga/so.wiki

amigassh V1.13
* compute the private key before establishing the connection
This increases the chance to establish a connection on slow Amigas
* some speed improvements measured with WinUAE cycle exact A500:
* creating a key pair is down to 43,2s!
* verifying the host is down to 2:14,6!
* removed CTRL+F

* added -T switch to run without pseudo terminal
amigassh V1.11

Now 16 bit integers are sufficient!
* the resulting program can now be used on a 68000.
amigassh V1.10
* fix an enforcer hit (using updated binutils/gcc)
amigassh V1.9
* renamed `mono` to `xterm-amiga`. Install it!
Necessary since too many stuff checks for the string `xterm`...
* added mouse support
* patch the window title, like xterm
* suppres right mouse button stuff, also during login
amigassh V1.8

* fix reading after buffer pointer changed
amigassh V1.1
* some support for CTRL/ALT,
* better cursor keys,
* better terminfo `mono`
* fix if stdin is a file/pipe
amigassh V1.0
* initial version
===============================================================================
SYNOPSIS
amigassh [-p port] [user]host[:port]
The port defaults to 22.
The user is read from the environment variable `USER`.
===============================================================================
DESCRIPTION
amigassh is an implementation of SSH2. The supported cryptographic methods are
* curve25519-sha256
* ssh-ed25519
* aes128-gcmopenssh.com
* hmac-sha2-256
* sha512
Only password based authentication is supported for now.
Install the terminfo `xterm-amiga` on the remote system!
Feel free to improve it!
On many systems you have to copy it as root into `/usr/share/terminfo/x`
Pimp your `.bash_profile` to unset `LANG` since the Amiga doesn't like UTF8...
A convenient way is to add this to `.bash_profile`:
```
if [ "$TERM" == "xterm-amiga" ]; then
unset LANG
fi
```
===============================================================================
RANDOM HINTS
* the know hosts are stored in `ENVARC:.ssh/known-hosts`
* the random generator is not the best...
It's rand() pimped with time and vpos. Then SHA256 is applied. Good enough?
But who would talk about security on an unprotected system like the Amiga?
* preset your username with
set USER=<yourname>
you can do this in `s:shell-startup`
* you can start it from the workbench!
Use the icon tooltypes to set
COMMAND a remote command to execute instead of a shell
CONSOLE an Amiga console string (defaults to CON://///AUTO/CLOSE/WAIT)
HOST the host name
PORT the port (defaults to 22)
TERM the terminal emulation (defaults to xterm-amiga)
USER the user name
* no console graphics?
install the `xterm-amiga` terminfo!
* no console colors?
install the `xterm-amiga` terminfo!
* no mouse in mc or other applications?
install the `xterm-amiga` terminfo!
* keys not working properly?
install the `xterm-amiga` terminfo!
* can't install xterm-amiga and have to build it for my system?
use tic and add the switch -s:
tic -s xterm-amiga.src
* some key does still not work
try pimping the xterm-amiga terminfo.
use `tic -xsv9 -o. xterm-amiga.src`
* console displays trash? text look blank? lines are bogus?
unset the variable `LANG`
* scp to amigasshd: closed remote port
ensure you are using the sftp subsystem, on some systems it's the `-s` flag
`scp -s ...`
* your remote Amiga is blocking because you accessed a volume that doesn't
exist?
e.g.: list foobar:
Get https://aminet.net/util/boot/Requester.lha and run "Cancel 5" from your
startup-sequence!
* public key authentication does not work!?
Check the file ENVARC:.ssh/authorized_keys if your public key is listed there.
* can't scp to a server named 'ram', e.g. amigascp c:s* ram:folder
add your user name to avoid detection as a local assign/drive:
mynameram:folder
