TACAS & SSH Host Based Auth - Any way to make this happen?
From everything I've read, if you are using remote authentication such as TACAS or LDAP, and want to use SSH host based authentication, you just plain can't since local authentication is disabled except for the default root and admin account.
We need to be able to have scripts connect to the Big IPs via SSH, run a few command, and authentication without storing the password for the credentials in the script itself. Ideally, this would be SSH host based authentication.
Since SSH host based auth isn't supported when using remote auth, how are we supposed to be able to automate processes which require scripts to SSH in and authenticate on their own without storing credentials in the script? Are there any work-arounds here? Thanks -Keith
