             Summary: KnownHostsServerKeyVerifier: handle CA keys
                 Key: SSHD-1167
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SSHD-1167
             Project: MINA SSHD
          Issue Type: Improvement
    Affects Versions: 2.7.1
            Reporter: Thomas Wolf


{{AbstractClientSession.checkKeys()}} correctly calls the {{ServerKeyVerifier}} 
to verify the CA key. 

OpenSSH considers for the check of the CA public key only entries in 
known_hosts that have the "@cert-authority" marker. 
{{KnownHostsServerKeyVerifier}} should do the same.

This may need an API change to tell the {{ServerKeyVerifier}} whether the 
public key being verified is a CA key or not.

Also, CA public keys are never added to known_hosts in OpenSSH? At least that's 
the impression I get when looking through the OpenSSH code.
