Hi all, Need some feedback. Since I've been playing with/working on ansible(http://ansible.github.com) it has raised some questions as to what we will allow/not allow for setting up hosts. Here's what I'd like to do: 1. allow lockbox01-only and ssh-key-only access, as root, via ssh to our systems. This would be an ssh key only on lockbox and owned by root (or possibly by sysadmin-main or other localgroup - like the private git repo). 2. have the root authorized_keys be available from infrastructure.fedoraproject.org via http (restricted to the hosts we allow, of course) 3. setup our kickstart %post to suck down these keys. This will enable me to streamline our installation process considerably. Right now there are a number of manual steps in our reinstall process. These manual steps are.... errorprone. I'd like to eliminate them. Right now we expose access to our systems via func - which is a daemon running as root which auth's using the puppet ssl cert/keys from lockbox01. The change to allowing ssh-in as root is not a considerably larger attack surface. The only exception is that ssh is available to various places for some of our systems, while func's ports are not. I'd like to hear some thoughts on making this change. If no one objects then I'll make this happen. thanks, -sv _______________________________________________ infrastructure mailing list infrastructure@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/infrastructure
