Virtual users in sshd from a postgres database

0
0

I have a Postgresql database full of user accounts, and i would like to allow these user to access a server through ssh, using only public keys authentification.

So far, i have setup these parts on an Ubuntu Server:

  1. libnss-pgsql2 to connect NSS to several database views listing my users in a Unix compatible format
  2. libpam-pgsql to allow PAM authentification using these same views
  3. sshd AuthorizedKeysCommand with a script that authenticates users with their public key (still from the postgresql database).

Is there a simpler way to go around this problem ? I have issues setting up correctly the nss configuration (lack of documentation & logs).

Thanks for your time & help.
