[Bug 156636]

[Buffer-g-overflow]

There seem to be plenty of interest downstream in supporting LDAP as a
network datastore for pubkeys (e.g. going back a few years, RH, Debian,
and Ubuntu have open bugs tracking this one), so, if this patch isn't
acceptable as offered, might it be possible to understand the reasons
and see if it's possible to arrive at an acceptable solution ?

Title:
  Please package openssh with LPK patch

Status in Portable OpenSSH:
  Won't Fix
Status in “openssh” package in Ubuntu:
  Triaged
Status in “openssh” package in Debian:
  New

Bug description:
  This patch is very useful for people running on LDAP infrastructure.
  It allows us to keep authorized_keys in LDAP instead of files on
  individual machines. It would be very useful to have this patch either
  in the default openssh-server, or a special version of that package.
  It is currently an option on Gentoo at least. Thanks!
