  2. ------------------------
  3. setting up authorized_user_id configuration on george was also more
  4. cumbersome than it needs to be. Here's what i (dkg) did:
  5. monkeysphere-server trust-keys 0EE5BE979282D80B9F7540F1CCD2ED94D21739E9
  6. monkeysphere-server update-user-userids dkg 'Daniel Kahn Gillmor <dkg@fifthhorseman.net>'
  7. monkeysphere-server update-user-userids jrollins 'Jameson Rollins <jrollins@fifthhorseman.net>'
  8. monkeysphere-server update-user-userids micah 'Micah Anderson <micah@riseup.net>'
  9. monkeysphere-server update-user-userids mjgoins 'Matthew Goins <mjgoins@openflows.com>'
  10. monkeysphere-server update-user-userids ross 'Ross Glover <ross@ross.mayfirst.org>'
  11. monkeysphere-server update-user-userids jamie 'Jamie McClelland <jamie@mayfirst.org>'
  12. monkeysphere-server update-user-userids mlcastle 'mike castleman <m@mlcastle.net>'
  13. monkeysphere-server update-user-userids enw 'Elliot Winard <enw@caveteen.com>'
  14. monkeysphere-server update-user-userids greg 'Greg Lyle <greg@stealthisemail.com>'
  15. then i added a scheduled:
  16. monkeysphere-server update-users
  17. to run hourly via /etc/crontab
  18. and made sure that root's keys were working with a temporary symlink
  19. (see TODO about that business)
  20. and then modified /etc/ssh/sshd_config with:
  21. AuthorizedKeysFile /var/cache/monkeysphere/authorized_keys/%u
  22. Some outstanding questions:
  23. * why are the authorized_user_ids stored in /etc/ and not in people's
  24. home directories?
  25. * why are authorized_user_ids managed with a special sub-command of
  26. monkeysphere-server, instead of just being hand-managed files, the
  27. way that authorized_keys are in stock openssh?
  28. * Should we ship a scheduled monkeysphere-server update-users cron
  29. job automatically?
  30. * why was i not prompted to confirm the trust-keys line, which seems
  31. like the most delicate/sensitive line of all of them?
