CyberArk User Neil is trying to connect to the Target Linux server 192.168.1.164 using a domain account ACME/linuxuser01 on domain acme.corp using PSM for SSH server 192.168.65.145.
What is the correct syntax?
When connecting to a Linux server using a domain account via CyberArk's PSM for SSH, the correct syntax includes specifying the domain account followed by a separator, which is typically '#'. This syntax ensures the connection knows to authenticate the domain user. Hence, the correct syntax is 'ssh neil@linuxuser01#[email protected]'.
ssh VaultUser@TargetUser@TragetAddress@PSMPAddress
The answer is B. Neil wants to log in as ACME/linuxuser01, so he needs to specify the domain as well.
B is the solution, if it was a local account, no need to specify nothing after Account (TargetUser), since it is a Domain account, domain name must be specified after # : Account#Domain
Domain users will authenticate on the target server so that it needs to use a special character separating the user name from the domain name. Besides default settings @ is the global separator and # is used on this purpose.
