[Fusionforge-general] [IMPORTANT] fusionforge.org running 6.1RC1, ssh password impact

[Franck Villaume]

Hi dear community,

with the last fusionforge.org upgrade to FusionForge 6.1RC1, SSH access does only support SSH key. The password access has been disabled for security reason.

What are the impacts for fusionforge.org ?
* if you are fusionforge commiters and you are using git over ssh, then you have to upload your public ssh key in your account
* if you are used to ssh to fusionforge.org server using your fusionforge account, this user account cannot change of user. sudo command will not work.

What are the impacts of any fusionforge running 6.1rc1 and above?
* users must publish their ssh public key if they want to leverage ssh access.
* fusionforge users cannot change of users. (sudo command will not work). If you are using a fusionforge account to ssh to your fusionforge server and using it to sudo as root, you will not be able to do it anymore. A fusionforge account cannot sudo as a local account on fusionforge host server.

For any question, feel free to comment.

Cheers,
