Thanks for your reply. That's exactly what I did: use the sshPublicKey 
attribute from the ldapPublicKey objectClass and it works nicely. I wish this 
ldapPublicKey objectClass could be included as default into OpenLDAP.

Do you already have LDAP entries representing your host/systems? That's really
hard part.

If you already have host entries, you can simply add aux object class
'ldapPublicKey' to this entries and put the various host keys (different
algorithms) in the multi-valued attribute 'sshPublicKey'.

Ciao, Michael.
