Hello sudo workers, we would like to implement kerberos authentication for sudo as an alternative to NOPASSWD in environments where other means of authentication are not available (e.g. when user logs in with smartcard to a remote machine where the smartcard is not physically available and passwords can not be used). The basic idea is to provide new option as an alternative to NOPASSWD and !authenticate. Lets say GSSPAPI. So the administrator can configure what rules can use kerberos ticket for authentication and what rules must go through pam. If a rule has GSSAPI set, kerberos authentication will be attempted. If it is not set, pam authentication will be used. We want to check before we start coding - is this something that sudo upstream would accept? Thank you. Best regards, Pavel. ____________________________________________________________ sudo-workers mailing list <[email protected]> For list information, options, or to unsubscribe, visit: https://www.sudo.ws/mailman/listinfo/sudo-workers
