// Private Key (PK) in PEM format
// To enable SSH, perform the following steps:
//
// Generating your PK:
// 1 - Choose a cipher (3DES, AES128, or AES256)
// 3des : older, most compatible, least secure
// aes128 : newer, widely compatible, fairly secure
// aes256 : newest, least compatible, best security
// 1 - Generate a Private Key (PK):
// Currently ENiGMA 1/2 requires a PKCS#1 PEM formatted PK.
// To generate a secure PK, issue the following command:
//
// 2 - Choose a bit strength (2048 or 4096)
// 2048 : most compatible, decent strength
// 4096 : stronger, but some software is completely incompatible
// > openssl genpkey -algorithm RSA -pkeyopt rsa_keygen_bits:2048 \
// -pkeyopt rsa_keygen_pubexp:65537 | openssl rsa \
// -out ./config/ssh_private_key.pem -aes128
//
// Sample command:
// openssl genrsa -aes128 -out ./config/ssh_private_key.pem 2048
// (The above is a more modern equivelant of the following):
// > openssl genrsa -aes128 -out ./config/ssh_private_key.pem 2048
//
// Then, set servers.ssh.privateKeyPass to the password you use above
// in your config.hjson
// 2 - Set 'privateKeyPass' to the password you used in step #1
//
// 3 - Finally, set 'enabled' to 'true'
