A New Internet-Draft is available from the on-line Internet-Drafts directories.
Title : Secure Shell 'pgp-sign-*' Public Key Algorithms
Author(s) : J. Weber
Filename : draft-weber-secsh-pgp-sign-00.txt
Pages : 6
Date : 2003-8-15
This document clarifies details of using OpenPGP keys as host keys
and user authentication keys in the Secure Shell protocol.
Preventing man in the middle attacks is an important part of
security, and in many circumstances verifying the authenticity of an
OpenPGP key will be easier than verifying the authenticity of an ssh-
rsa or ssh-dss key.

In the body type:
"FILE /internet-drafts/draft-weber-secsh-pgp-sign-00.txt".
NOTE: The mail server at ietf.org can return the document in
MIME-encoded form by using the "mpack" utility. To use this
feature, insert the command "ENCODING mime" before the "FILE"
command. To decode the response(s), you will need "munpack" or
a MIME-compliant mail reader. Different MIME-compliant mail readers
exhibit different behavior, especially when dealing with
"multipart" MIME messages (i.e. documents which have been split
up into multiple messages), so check your local documentation on
how to manipulate these messages.
Below is the data which will enable a MIME compliant mail reader
implementation to automatically retrieve the ASCII version of the
Internet-Draft.
