libpam-ssh

Authenticate using SSH keys

Description

This pluggable authentication module (PAM) provides single sign-on using secure shell (SSH) keys: - during authentication, the user types a SSH passphrase and is authenticated

if the passphrase successfully decrypts the user's SSH private keys;

- in session phase, a ssh-agent process is started and decrypted keys are

added, and thus the user can SSH to other hosts that accept key

authentication without typing more passwords for the entire session.

Recent versions of OpenSSH have raised `Important` coexistence issues between libpam-ssh and sshd, while libpam-ssh is no longer supported by upstream. For these reasons, the maintainer of this package strongly encourages to envisage alternatives.
