NAME

6       cdist-type__ssh_authorized_keys - Manage ssh authorized_keys files
7

DESCRIPTION

9       Adds or removes ssh keys from a authorized_keys file.
10
11       This  type uses the __ssh_dot_ssh type to manage the directory contain‐
12       ing the authorized_keys file. You can disable  this  feature  with  the
13       --noparent boolean parameter.
14
15       The  existence,  ownership  and permissions of the authorized_keys file
16       itself are also managed. This can be disabled with the --nofile boolean
17       parameter.  It  is then left to the user to ensure that the file exists
18       and that ownership and permissions work with ssh.
19
