Native Secure Enclave backed ssh keys on MacOS

It turns out that MacOS Tahoe can generate and use secure-enclave backed SSH keys! This replaces projects like https://github.com/maxgoedjen/secretive

There is a shared library /usr/lib/ssh-keychain.dylib that traditionally has been used to add smartcard support to ssh by implementing PKCS11Provider interface. However since recently it also implements SecurityKeyProivder which supports loading keys directly from the secure enclave! SecurityKeyProvider is what is normally used to talk to FIDO2 devices (e.g. libfido2 can be used to talk to your Yubikey). However you can now use it to talk to your Secure Enclave instead!

You've got two main options:

Twitter DM + OTR: A quick and dirty tutorial

With the recent removal of the 140-character limit in Direct Messages by Twitter, DM's have now become a much more useful platform for communicating between individuals and groups. Sadly, DM's are still sent in plaintext between users and Twitter has no plans currently on encrypting these messages, at least as of August 2015. Since these are stored in plaintext at rest, an adversary can see the content of the message you are sending, which the two parties might not wish to happen. Fortunately as a few applications with basic Twitter support which also have excellent support for OTR, all hope isn't lo

CentOS 7 Kickstart File - HOWTO Build ISO

There is so much documentation online from RedHat and CentOS about this topic - it's sad that I am writing this. But the real state of documentation on this topic (CentOS 7 + KS + ISO = Bootable DVD) is almost non-existent.

I found this: http://smorgasbork.com/component/content/article/35-linux/151-building-a-custom-centos-7-kickstart-disc-part-1

Which I greatly appreciate and +1, but the documentation is half-baked and there are numerous errors.

Finally... FINALLY! After four days of banging my head, I got this to work. Hopefully someone else will be able to do this in a few hours, instead of blowing their weekend like me. :(

These are my notes basically. At first i created this gist just as a reminder for myself. But feel free to use this for your project as a starting point. If you have questions you can find me on twitter @thomasf https://twitter.com/thomasf This is how i used it on a Debian Wheezy testing (https://www.debian.org/releases/testing/)
