Description : Distkeys - upload SSH keys to servers and more
Distkeys distributes a list of public SSH keys to a list of servers.
It reaches servers behind a firewall as well by using SSH port forwarding.
Furthermore it can execute a command or a script on a list of hosts or
copy a file to them.
We use this package to distribute our own public keys to our own and
customer machines. I plan to maintain upstream and Debian packaging.
In comparison with other solutions I see the following specifics:
- It is mainly targetted at distribution of SSH keys.
- It can access servers behind a firewall via port forwarding.
- It downloads authorized_keys, does all changes and uploads them in one
go, and thus is quite fast.
- It tries to play it safe by backuping of authorized_keys intelligently.
We would like to share distkeys in the hope it is useful to others.
Current state of packaging is almost ready to review. TODO:
- Review adaptions to make it run with Ruby 1.9.
- Get it reviewed by a sponsor (see RFS bug below).
The packaging is using git-buildpackage with separate upstream and debian
packaging branches. It is already lintian clean, except for a debian/watch
file which I consider to be unnecessary in this case.
