ssh-key-dir

crates.io

ssh-key-dir is an sshd AuthorizedKeysCommand that reads SSH authorized key files from a directory, ~/.ssh/authorized_keys.d. It allows SSH keys to be managed by multiple tools and processes, without competing over ~/.ssh/authorized_keys.

ssh-key-dir reads key files in lexigraphical order, ignoring any filenames starting with a dot.

Installing

ssh-key-dir is packaged in Fedora:

You can also install just the ssh-key-dir binary with Rust's Cargo package manager:

cargo install ssh-key-dir

Build and install from source tree
