[jira] Created: (MNG-2272) It should be possible to trust all public keys implicitly

It should be possible to trust all public keys implicitly
---------------------------------------------------------

         Key: MNG-2272
         URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MNG-2272
     Project: Maven 2
        Type: Improvement

  Components: General, Ant tasks  
    Reporter: Dan Fabulich


There should be a setting in server.xml and in the <authentication> element for the ant task that allows you to turn off host key checking, and to explicitly trust all hosts, without prompting you to accept the certificate.  (Ant's <scp> task allows you to do this.)  

On my official build system, I don't have the authority to leave files in the home directory. (The official build machine needs to remain pristine; if everybody just dropped one little custom file for their build, there'd be no way to reproduce the build machine.) That means that I need to be able to convince Maven to accept a host with an arbitrary public key.
