<p>Begin by browsing the <a href="<?php outurl('/servers')?>">server list</a>. Click on the server that you need access to.</p>
|
|
<p>You should see a "request access" form, in which you will need to enter the name of the account on the server that you are requesting access for. For example, if you need access to the <i>root</i> account, then that is what you should enter in this field.</p>
|
|
<p>Once you have successfully requested access, the designated server administators will be sent a mail informing them of your request and you will need to wait for one of them to grant your access.</p>

<dt>SFTP subsystem failed</dt>
|
|
<dd>SSH key authority currently relies on SFTP in order to determine if an account's key file needs updating or not. We are hoping to remove this dependency at some point, but for now your server needs to support SFTP (which openssh does by default) for key synchronization to work.</dd>

SSH key authority could not write to at least one of the files in <code>/var/local/keys-sync</code> (or <code>/root/.ssh/authorized_keys2</code> for legacy sync). This is typically caused by one of 3 possibilities:
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>Issues with file ownership - this directory and all files in it must be owned by the keys-sync user</li>
|
|
<li>Read-only filesystem</li>
|
|
<li>Disk full</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
</dd>
|
|
<dt>Multiple hosts with same IP address</dt>
|
|
<dd>At least one other host managed by SSH Key Authority resolves to the same IP address as your server. SSH Key Authority will refuse to sync to either server until this is resolved.</dd>

<h5>Stage 1</h5>
|
|
<p>If SSH Key Authority is reporting "Key directory does not exist" for your server, then Stage 1 is required.</p>
|
|
<ol>
|
|
<li>Create keys-sync account: <code>adduser --system --disabled-password --home /var/local/keys-sync --shell /bin/sh keys-sync</code>
|
|
<li>Change the permissions of <code>/var/local/keys-sync</code> to 711: <code>chmod 0711 /var/local/keys-sync</code>
|
|
<li>Create <code>/var/local/keys-sync/keys-sync</code> file (owned by keys-sync, permissions 0644) with the following SSH key in it:
|
|
<pre><?php out($this->get('keys-sync-pubkey'))?></pre>
|
|
</li>
|
|
<?php if(isset($security_config['hostname_verification']) && $security_config['hostname_verification'] >= 3) { ?>
|
|
<li>Create <code>/var/local/keys-sync/.hostnames</code> text file (owned by keys-sync, permissions 0644) with the server's hostname in it</li>
|
|
<?php } ?>
|
|
</ol>
|
|
<h5>Verify Stage 1 success</h5>
|
|
<p>Once Stage 1 has been deployed to your server, trigger a resync from SSH Key Authority. The server should no longer have the "Key directory does not exist" warning after syncing (the "Using legacy sync method" warning is expected at this point instead). You can check the contents of the <code>/var/local/keys-sync</code> directory to make sure that the access looks right.</p>
|
|
<h5>Stage 2</h5>
|
|
<ol>
|
|
<li>
|
|
Reconfigure SSH (<code>/etc/ssh/sshd_config</code>) to use:
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>"<code>AuthorizedKeysFile /var/local/keys-sync/%u</code>"
|
|
<li>"<code>StrictModes no</code>"
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<li>Restart SSH server
|
|
</ol>
|
|
<p>This stage stops any .ssh/authorized_keys* files from having any effect and transfers login authentication authority over to the /var/local/keys-sync directory.</p>
|
|
<p>After triggering a resync from SSH Key Authority, your server should be listed as "Synced successfully".</p>
