Then, I was thinking of SSH. Is there a way to obtain the fingerprint, ID, or another bit of information about the RSA/DSA key used to login to sshd? let's say I have an account dyndns which can modify a specific zone file. I add the ssh keys from users who are allowed to interact with dyndns to the authorized_keys file. now if i can get at the key ID used to login, i have all that i need. ideas? -- Please do not CC me!
