Re: MUSCLE SSH and Smartcards?
Hi Eric. What about using a crypted communication between the reader and the card? That's no help. The secret would still be on the (untrusted) host for the ssh authentication. Yes, you´re right. I didn´t thought on that. Bye, Mike *** Linux Smart Card Developers - M.U.S.C.L.E. (Movement for the Use of Smart Cards in a Linux Environment) http://www.linuxnet.com/smartcard/index.html ***
Re: MUSCLE SSH and Smartcards?
Does anybody know of a hook in ssh for using smartcard for authentification? Is anybody working on this feature? We use scfs to store the ssh private key on the card, but this is not ideal because the secret leaves the card during authentication. What you really want is to do the crypto on the card. Cyberflex should be capable of this but we're not working on it at the moment. *** Linux Smart Card Developers - M.U.S.C.L.E.
