Package: monkeysphere
Version: 0.31-1
Severity: wishlist
one of the primary things preventing me from encouraging use of monkeysphere
here at freegeek is that it requires use of fully qualified domain names.
while i understand the desire to not add many potentially non-unique UIDs to
the keyring, i'm wondering if it would be possible (perhaps with a commandline
option) for the monkeysphere ssh-proxycommand to append the search domain(s)
when someone attempts to connect to ssh without a FQDN. i.e.
if someone types:
ssh foo
and the search domain was example.net, then the monkeysphere proxy would look
for:
gpg --search '=ssh://foo.example.net'
and append the key appropriately to known_hosts if it verifies correctly?
at the very least, it shouldn't try any monkeysphere magic when not ssh'ing to
a FQDN.
this comes up for me fairly often, as i sometimes connect to a service via
"foo.example.net", but sometimes connect to "foo" and manually verify the key.
monkeysphere deletes the entry for "foo" when i connect to "foo.example.net"
later. this makes it difficult to use monkeysphere, unfortunately.
live well,
vagrant
