 +===== Automating via SSH configuration files =====
 +
 +<note important>All commands here are run as **root** on the client system</note>
 +
 +  - **As root** on your client system, generate a new SSH keypair to use for VPN. <code>ssh-keygen -f ~/.ssh/id_rsa_vpn -N ''</code>
 +  - Install new public key into remote system, and prefix with a ForeCommand which is run whenever this key is used to authenticate:<code>( \
 +  printf 'tunnel="0",command="ifconfig tun0 inet 172.16.0.1 dstaddr 172.16.0.2" ' ; \
 +  cat ~/.ssh/id_rsa_test.pub \
 +) | ssh root@www.robmeerman.co.uk tee -a .ssh/authorized_keys</code>
 +  - Configure client via ''~/.ssh/config''. Add the following to the end of ''.ssh/config'' (create it if it does not exist) and replace ''$SERVER'' with your server's hostname: <code>Host vpn
 +  Hostname $SERVER
 +  User root
 +  # Remote's .ssh/authorised_keys entry for this identity is prefixed with:
 +  # tunnel="0",command="ifconfig tun0 inet 172.16.0.1 dstaddr 172.16.0.2" ssh-rsa
 +  IdentityFile ~root/.ssh/id_rsa_vpn
 +  Tunnel yes
 +  TunnelDevice 0:0
 +  PermitLocalCommand yes
 +  LocalCommand ~root/.ssh/vpn.sh %h %T
 +  # Disable connection sharing, otherwise closing VPN may not actually reset
 +  # network settings because vpn.sh (cf. LocalCommand) continues to wait
 +  # for the `ssh` process to exit (which it may not if another session is
 +  # active)
 +  ControlPath none
 +  # Disable use of ssh-agent, as it seems to prevent our preferred identity
 +  # (cf. IdentityFile) being applied, which in turn means we don't trigger the
 +  # ForceCommand of the remote's authorized_keys file
 +  IdentityAgent none</code>
 +  - Create a new script on your client machine at ''~root/.ssh/vpn.sh'' which configures your Mac to route traffic headed to your server via the current gateway, and then change the default gateway (that applies to all __other__ traffic) to go via the new SSH ''tun'' device at 172.16.0.1, then wait for the ''ssh'' process to exit before returning settings to normal: <code>#!/bin/bash
 +# .ssh/config: LocalCommand vpn.sh %h %T
 +REMOTE_HOST=$1
 +TUNNEL_DEVICE=$2
 +
 +ifconfig $TUNNEL_DEVICE inet 172.16.0.2 172.16.0.1
 +ROUTE=$(route get $REMOTE_HOST)
 +GATEWAY=$(sed -ne 's/^ *gateway: //p' <<<"$ROUTE")
 +INTERFACE=$(sed -ne 's/^ *interface: //p' <<<"$ROUTE")
 +route add $REMOTE_HOST $GATEWAY
 +route add 10/8 $GATEWAY
 +route change default 172.16.0.1
 +WAIT_PID=$PPID
 +(
 +while kill -0 $WAIT_PID >/dev/null 2>&1; do sleep 0.5; done
 +# The route gets deleted when the SSH tunnel closes gracefully and tun0 disappears
 +route change default $GATEWAY
 +route add default $GATEWAY
 +route delete 10/8 $GATEWAY
 +route delete $REMOTE_HOST $GATEWAY
 +) &</code> This script is unlikely to work on other OS
 +  - Make the new script executable: <code>chmod a+x ~root/.ssh/vpn.sh</code>
 +  - Test it by running <code>ssh vpn</code>

 +====== GPG with remote forwarding ======
 +
 +GPG Agent forwarding allows a remote system to access secrets held in your local system via an SSH tunnel. When you are not connected to the remote system, it cannot access your secrets, and if the remote system is compromised your secrets are not (since they are never stored on it).
 +
 +My (initial) use-case is to allow docker on a remote host to store login my login credentials (so I can push/pull images when working), but not store secrets on that hose. THe default behaviour is to store my password in plain text, which is unacceptable.
 +
 +So I opted to use [[docker credentials management|https://docs.docker.com/engine/reference/commandline/login/#credentials-store]] and [[https://www.passwordstore.org/|pass]]. The ''pass'' tool uses GPG to encrypt and decrypt passwords. If I use GPG the traditional way (with secret keys in my $HOME directory) I've not gained any security: the encrypted password and and the decryption key are on the same host!
 +
 +So I want to use GPG agent forwarding to allow ''pass'' to decrypt secrets while I am connected and working, without the decryptions keys ever leaving my laptop.
 +
 +Overview (notes to follow, I hope):
 +
 +  - Install GPG locally and create an identity
 +  - Ensure that passphrase challenge ("pinentry") does _not_ use the TTY, since the TTY at the remote won't match local - better to use a GUI or the OSX KeyChain
 +  - Install GPG on remote, and import public key
 +  - Configure SSH to forward agent socket
 +  - Disable systemd stuff which creates (unused) gpg sockets and/or configure SSHd to allow you to delete and recreate those sockets
 +
 +https://www.binarybabel.org/2017/03/10/setting-up-pin-entry-for-gpg-under-macos/
 +
 +  - ''brew install gnupg gpg-agent pinentry-mac''
 +  - Append to ''~/.profile'': <code> if [ -f ~/.gnupg/.gpg-agent-info ] && [ -n "$(pgrep gpg-agent)" ]; then
 +    source ~/.gnupg/.gpg-agent-info
 +    export GPG_AGENT_INFO
 +else
 +    eval $(gpg-agent --daemon --write-env-file ~/.gnupg/.gpg-agent-info)
 +fi</code>
 +  - Create/modify the following GPG files:
 +    - ''mkdir -p ~/.gnupg''
 +    - ''~/.gnupg/gpg.conf'':<code>use-agent</code>
 +    - ''~/.gnupg/gpg-agent.conf'':<code> use-standard-socket
 +pinentry-program /usr/local/bin/pinentry-mac
 +default-cache-ttl 600
 +max-cache-ttl 7200</code>

 +Testcase:
 +
 +<code>echo "foo" | gpg --encrypt -r "Robert Meerman" | gpg --decrypt</code>
