Is it possible to fetch the public keys from a database instead of the authorized_keys file? I would like to use such a setup to manage ssh access to things like git repositories for multiple users without the need to recreate the authorized_keys file every time a public key is changed or added. | |||

OpenSSH doesn't have this capability, as far as I'm aware. Your best bet may be to have a script automatically regenerate the file nightly (or as frequently as necessary). Also, you might want to see this question: http://serverfault.com/questions/117072/a-system-for-distributing-ssh-public-keys | |||

I believe that in newer openssh versions you can store keys in a users LDAP entry. If you are already using LDAP or AD for account management you should be able to leverage it for key management as well. | |||
