authorized-keys-test - Validate a authorized_keys file
authorized-keys-test ~/.ssh/authorized_keys
authorized-keys-test reads in the keys of an ssh client authorized_keys file and
reports any errors.
- -v
- Verbose mode. Turns on DEBUG instead of INFO.
- -s
- Strict mode. If on, the test insists on properly formatted
authorized_keys files and isn't nearly as lenient as the sshd daemon's
parser.
