View Source ssh_server_key_api behaviour (ssh v5.2)

-behaviour(ssh_server_key_api).

Behaviour describing the API for public key handling of an SSH server. By implementing the callbacks defined in this behavior, the public key handling of an SSH server can be customized. By default the SSH application implements this behavior with help of the standard OpenSSH files, see the ssh application manual.
