This collection of tools is our take on managing a CA, signing SSH keys and certificates, signin SSL certificates.
request_server.py
This is a shell for a user, the shell only reads the input from the user and return a JSON, this user can be used with Ansible to request and retrive certificates.
The input must be a JSON file, e.g
{
{
"keyType": "ssh_host",
"hostName": "my_new_server",
"keyData": "ssh-ed25519 aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa root@my_new_server"
},
"type": "sign_request"
}
the example is a sign_request
for a ssh host certificate.
The shell just output a json with status
and reason
keys.
{
"reason" : ...,
"status" : ...
}
The server logs can be found at /home/request/request_server.log
ca_sheel.py
This is a shell for a user, the shell limits the commands to the one we are interested, like generating a SSH/SSL CA, signing keys.
The only configuration needed is the path where to operate, modifying te file paths.py
is all is needed.
