do you want this as a gimmick, or as a real security feature? one way to do this (the gimmicky one) is to have public key auth on ssh, and have a program on the laptop that unlocks/decrypts your key only if it gets the right fingerprint. However, if an attacker were to steal your laptop, he could reverse said program to decrypt your private key without needing your fingerptint, so its not really any more secure than having a decrypted private key on your laptop for real security, you would need to implement the fingerprint matching on a secure system (not your laptop) regards Pavel Herrmann _______________________________________________ fprint mailing list fprint@lists.freedesktop.org http://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/fprint
