Paramiko does not yet implement modern handshake variants with
rsa-sha2-256. OpenSSH 8.2 release notes say that the old ssh-rsa
algorithm (RSA with SHA-1 signature) be disabled soon. The algorithm does
not work in FIPS either.

The patch implements OpenSSH password-based logins using the sshpass
utilility. It reads the password from a secure file and feeds it to
OpenSSH command line tool.

How soon can this patch be merged. sssd-qe requires this enhancement to connect to AD from the controller using openssh for fips testing.

spoore commented Apr 1, 2020

Sorry, I lost track of this one. I believe it can be merged now. The changes seem completely reasonable to me.

@cheimes didn't you mention that this was done upstream already for freeipa?
