<modulesummary>Default callback module for the client's and server's database operations in the ssh application</modulesummary>
<description>
<p>This module is the default callback handler for the client's and the server's user and host "database" operations.
All data, for instance key pairs, are stored in files in the normal file system. This page documents the files, where they
are stored and configuration options for this callback module.
</p>
<p>The intention is to be compatible with the
<url href="http://www.openssh.com">OpenSSH</url>
storage in files. Therefore it mimics directories and filenames of
<url href="http://www.openssh.com">OpenSSH</url>.
</p>
<p>Ssh_file implements the <seealso marker="ssh:ssh_server_key_api">ssh_server_key_api</seealso> and
the <seealso marker="ssh:ssh_client_key_api">ssh_client_key_api</seealso>.
This enables the user to make an own interface using for example a database handler.
</p>
<p>Such another callback module could be used by setting the option
<seealso marker="ssh:ssh#type-key_cb_common_option"><c>key_cb</c></seealso>
when starting a client or a server (with for example
<seealso marker="ssh:ssh#connect-3">ssh:connect</seealso>,
<seealso marker="ssh:ssh#daemon-2">ssh:daemon</seealso> of
<seealso marker="ssh:ssh#shell-1">ssh:shell</seealso>
).
</p>
<note>
<p>The functions are <i>Callbacks</i> for the SSH app. They are not intended to be called from the user's code!
