v10 Passwordless Authentication (RSA Cert)

Hi Manuel,

 

 

For testing, it's fine to edit the sshd_config. There's a possibility that the change will get overwritten during a config reload though.

 

 

The new way to modify the daemon configuration in 9.4.2+/10.x is to use the bpsh to customise the /config/bigip_sys.conf file.

This is also a template for all system daemons controlled by SCF, so you can modify, for example, sshd to permit publick key authorization with an sshd.inc file like this:

 

 

sshd include "

 

PubkeyAuthentication yes

 

AuthorizedKeysFile /config/ssh/authorized_keys

 

"

 

 

 

 

So if you create a file called my_sshd.inc containing the four lines above, you can run 'bpsh < my_sshd.inc' and then 'b save all' to add the sshd configuration options to the bigip_sys.conf file.
