If you have lost or forgotten your LDAP password (and by extension, your
machine login password) you can have it reset by sending a PGP signed
LDAP information through the <a href="doc-mail.html">mail gateway</a> and use
SSH RSA Authentication to access the servers. To setup OpenSSH for RSA you
need to first generate a private RSA key using <tt>ssh-keygen</tt> and select
-a good password for it. Then send the public portion of the key to the LDAP
+a good passphrase for it. Then send the public portion of the key to the LDAP
directory:
<pre>
gpg --clearsign < ~/.ssh/identity.pub | mail change@db.debian.org
</pre>
You can then use this key to authenticate to the machines. Using ssh-agent
(automatically run by Debian's X configuration) you can use ssh-add to 'cache'
-your password once. Note: Very few
-machines have the patched SSH required to support this yet.
