Re: Publickey subsystem draft

[Richard Whalen <Whalenr%process.com@localhost>]

I am looking into implementing the Public-Key Subsystem and I've come across
a bit of a problem that I need to solve before I can continue.

Our implementation is built upon the implementation from SSH.COM.  In this
implementation there is a file that contains a list of the files that
contain the keys, with one key per file.

Implementing the "list" operation is no problem: read the file that contains
the list of key files and then send the information from each key file.

The hard part comes with the "add" and "remove" operations.  Since each key
is stored in a separate file, there needs to be a name for this file.  The
current draft does not contain a "name" for a key that could be used to
specify the file that the key is stored in.
