Workbench 2 accepts modern SSH key types (elliptic curve/ecdsa/ed25519)
Added by Brett Smith about 2 years ago.
Updated about 1 year ago.
Description
I'm not sure where this limitation originates from, but Workbench 2 doesn't want to accept my elliptic curve key:

Arvados should support all the same key types as OpenSSH: dsa, ecdsa, ecdsa-sk, ed25519, ed25519-sk, rsa
simple solution is to just relax the regular expression to accept any token [a-z0-9-]+

The API server has an analogous limit, it only accepts RSA and DSA keys. See public_key_must_be_unique
in services/api/app/models/authorized_key.rb
.
This validation uses the sshkey gem which claims to only support RSA and DSA keys.
So, in order for Arvados to actually accept modern keys we need to figure that out too.
