Re: ssh + tacacs+ / nis with key based auth

I should actually elaborate on this question a little further.
Currently we authenticate to each server using key based
authentication. That solution works brilliantly for each individual
system on a small scale. However as the company has grown we have got
more and more servers. When a new staff member joins or someone leaves
there is no easy way to go and add/remove users from the system.
Currently it takes around 3hours to add new users to all the systems.
Moving forward we need to centralise the authentication. I am very
familure with using NIS+ as the method of authentication however I am
unable to find any documentation on how to integrate NIS+ / OpenSSH and
keybased authentication.

I have read documentation that says its possible with the commercial
systems but not with the OpenSSH stuff. Can anyone shed some light on
that for me.

Johhny
