Out of interest, did you, perchance, try running an ssh-keygen -l on a
DSA-infested file?

Then you go and remove the corresponding pubkeys from wherever they're
configured.
Seriously, even if you do not scan which pubkey is configured where
*now* (as is part of our usual monitoring), it'll be your "number <3"

How would the script even *know* that the client requested the SFTP
subsystem? Is a subsystem's executable/path, supposedly internally
overwritten with the forced command at that point, exposed through
$SSH_ORIGINAL_COMMAND ?

Compounding global and individual settings in ssh-config files?
Hello everyone,
my workplace has gotten the idea of centrally maintaining a file in
ssh_config syntax so that employees do not need to discover every new
machine and configure it on their own. Since it's a case of "let's get
started now, and properly think it through later", right now, a typical
entry might look like

What authentication method(s) do your users use?
On our Internet-facing SFTP server, by default (few exceptions), we
accept only pubkey auth and require users to (un)install pubkeys through

FWIW, two cents of mine:
