Patch by Colin Watson
David Zeuthen:
Colin Watson of Ubuntu developed a patch for adding ConsoleKit support
to
openssh. This is useful because
- ConsoleKit is evolving into a utmp/wtmp replacement so tracking
users
logging in via ssh is useful
- We'll do the right thing on the GNOME Shutdown dialog and prompt
when
trying to shutdown and there are users logged in via ssh
- It's the foundation for the PolicyKit authorization framework to
grant
authorizations to users that only apply when they are logged in from
a well-known remote host. E.g. right now I'm working on adding
support
to PolicyKit for this so you can do things like
polkit-auth --user bateman \
--grant org.libvirt.unix.manage \
--constraint
remote_host_name:"*.securelab.company.com"
(Of course this relies on secure DNS but that's another can of
worms)
