salt.states.ssh_auth

Control of entries in SSH authorized_key files.

The information stored in a user's ssh authorized key file can be easily controlled via the ssh_auth state. Defaults can be set by the enc, options, and comment keys. These defaults can be overridden by including them in the name.
