Public bug reported: I just tried installing the Artful version (0.10.3-1) on a Xenial install, and had some problems making it work. It seems that I needed `Defaults env_keep+=SSH_AUTH_SOCK` (or, actually, I used `Defaults env_keep+=SSH_*`) to let pam-ssh-agent-auth see the SSH agent and connect to it. Perhaps a note about this in the README would be helpful, if this is really always required? Or is this not needed with newer sudo versions (I'm using 1.8.16).
On a related note, I had some problems with directory permissions (this Ubuntu install had group- and world-write bits enabled on / and /etc). This is probably not a problem on a default install, but it might be good to mention these restrictions when someone wants to move the key file somewhere else (though a proper error message is logged to auth.log by default, even without debug, so that's at least helpful). ** Affects: pam-ssh-agent-auth (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1730398 Title: Document need for env_keep+=SSH_AUTH_SOCK To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/pam-ssh-agent-auth/+bug/1730398/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
