[jira] [Commented] (SSHD-757) Add support for PGP authorized keys usage

["Goldstein Lyor (JIRA)" <ji...@apache.org>]

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SSHD-757?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=16101617#comment-16101617 ] 

Goldstein Lyor commented on SSHD-757:
-------------------------------------

Details are still a bit sketchy as to how the public keys are published by the client:

* Where do they reside ? Is there some *standard* location
* Is there some standard way to specify them in the _authorized_keys_ file ?
* Is there some SSH *standard* (RFC) that specifies how to do user authentication using PGP keys ?

> [SSH 2.3|http://www.onlamp.com/pub/a/onlamp/excerpt/ssh_8/] seems to have added the capability to use PGP keys as authorized ones:

> SSH2 Version 2.0.13 introduced support for PGP authentication. Your authorization file may also include {{PgpPublicKeyFile, PgpKeyName, PgpKey Fingerprint}}, and {{PgpKeyId}} lines. A Command line may follow them, just as it may follow Key:
> {noformat}
> # SSH2 only
> PgpKeyName my-key
> Command "/bin/echo PGP authentication was detected" 
> {noformat}

> Some examples of how to use _Bouncycastle_ to facilitate this:
