LPK in mainline OpenSSH

[SJ]

Hi,

Are there any plans to integrate LPK in the mainline OpenSSH code any
time soon?

Thanks!

Hello,

That has been tried several times and unfortunately failed!
I did not try as I'm not maintaining the patch actively, I have to
push the latest release to the svn after some more testing,
integrating some bug fixes etc... should have been released 2/3 weeks
ago and I'm again late, because as usual very busy and travelling a
lot.

Sorry for that...

I commited the contribution I received recently and becoming more
active again in my own project :)

HTH,
Cheers,
Eric.

Just wanted to add that this is exactly what I needed/wanted. Having
it included w/n openssh would have this deployed to over 1000 *nix
servers at my work. Unfortunately it is not there yet, but thought I
would drop a line here in support of the effort anyways.

Many regulations are coming down that unix needs multiple factors/2
factor authentication solutions for root/admin level access. Put your
private key on a usb fob.. ssh-agent with some "ssh -A servername"..
even add in pam_ssh with ssh-agent running your kde and using the
Match conditional block in sshd_config that uses groups that are in
ldap to decide whether you get in via pam_ldap or publickey auth..
