I am trying to set up ssh public key access on a SCM (source code management) host but with long 32 character usernames. Ssh keys are placed in the filesystem under a user's home directory. The sshd server takes the login name from the ssh client to derive a path to the authorized_keys file in the filesystem. Is this code baked into sshd or is is part of a PAM module? From the sshd man page, it appears there is a "ssh-pubkey" service name but I'm not sure what this is for. My list of user/login accounts are in a database and I need some way of hooking that into sshd. Any ideas?
