SSH-HOSTKEYS(1)

💖 ssh-hostkeys(1) 💖

okay bestie, listen up — this is the manual page for ssh-hostkeys, one of those lil <pink>User Commands</pink> that lives in section 1. she's small, she's mighty, and she does exactly one thing but does it gorgeously. let's get into it 🫶

✨ NAME ✨

ssh-hostkeys — prints server host keys in several formats

like. that's it. that's the whole job. she prints server host keys, and she prints them in several formats. icon behaviour honestly 💅

---

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

ssh-hostkeys [OPTIONS] hostname

so you hand her some [OPTIONS] if you're feeling fancy, you hand her a hostname, and she goes to work. simple as. no cap. ✨

---

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

prints server host keys in several formats

yep — same energy as the NAME section, because this tool knows what it is and doesn't need to over-explain. you give her a host, she comes back with the server host keys in several formats. main character energy, minimal small talk. 🎀

---

👑 OPTIONS 👑

every single one, no skipping, we don't do that here:

• -4 — Use IPv4 only. v4 girlies only, we're not entertaining anything else 💜
• -6 — Use IPv6 only. the v6 besties get their own lane 🌈
• -h — Show this message. your girl is helpful like that, she'll hand you the help text 🙈
• -T timeout — Time to wait for a response, in seconds. how long she's willing to sit there waiting before she's like. okay. moving on. ⏳
• -p port — Port to connect to on the remote host. bc sometimes the remote host isn't chilling on the default one 🍓

---

heads up bestie: -4 and -6 are literally opposites, so like, pick a lane. (the original doesn't say what happens if you do both and neither will I, because I am not out here making things up. iykyk.)
