Link from SSH+PGP to SSH+PIV pages

Open jsha opened this issue 4 years ago • 0 comments

Right now if you search Google for [yubikey ssh], you'll wind up at the page that describes how to use the OpenPGP applet to do SSH:

https://developers.yubico.com/PGP/SSH_authentication/

However, it's also possible to use PIV, as described at

https://developers.yubico.com/PIV/Guides/SSH_with_PIV_and_PKCS11.html

I've talked to a lot of people who get the impression that OpenPGP is the "best" or "official" way to do SSH with a Yubikey, but when I show them how to use PIV, they find it much easier. I think it would be really beneficial for the PGP+SSH main page, plus the platform-specific guides, to prominently state near the top that PIV is also available and many people find PIV easier to set up and use.
