After the release of the NSS plugin for SecurePass and my article on Alessio Treglia’s blog, I received a lot of queries on what are the attributes that are considered as “reserved”.
Well, there are not reserved attributes written on a stone in SecurePass Beta, but the following attributes names have been used in the NSS plugin:
- posixuid → UID of the user
- posixgid → GID of the user
- posixhomedir → Home directory
- posixshell → Desired shell
- posixgecos → Gecos (defaults to username)
Also the keywords below have been used in some customers:
- sshkey → SSH public key
- bitcoin → Bitcoin address
The current development release of SecurePass tools contain a script to extract user’s ssh key and inject automatically into the ~/.ssh/authorized_keys
