personally, I use the 'root' account for that purpose like so:
users.extraUsers.root.openssh.authorizedKeys.keys = pkgs.lib.singleton ''
command="nice -n20 nix-store --serve --write" <your-authorized-ssh-key-here>
'';
As far as I know, other unprivileged users cannot use nix-store in that
way, so you cannot easily configure a forced command for them (which is
desirable, IMHO). I might be wrong, though.
Best regards,
Peter
