[NBLUG/talk] ssh keys and openldap?

[Jacob Appelbaum]

Hi,

I'm trying to find a good way to do centralized authentication and I've
settled on OpenLDAP.

It appears that with a patch to OpenSSH this can be done:

Has anyone done this or anything like it?

I'm hesitant to settle on this particular method if there is another
tried and true method...

Thanks in advance,
Jacob
