  • Sudo rules when using SSH certificates

    One solution could be uber-pamussh which allows to reuse the SSH certificate and the given principals as filter for sudo access. Sounds great and works pretty god, but the issue is that the repo is not maintained (or has at least a low activity) which makes me doubt if this is a good solution.

    Yep. We're using Vault to provide SSH certs, and it works like a dream. For certain servers, we're even using this PAM module to provide passwordless sudo: https://github.com/uber/pam-ussh
