Description

Majic Ansible Roles uses a separate OpenSSH service for providing backup functionality (via the backup_server and backup_client roles).

While Debian 8 Jessie was still supported, this meant setting-up a number of private key types, among others DSA keys. However, the DSA keys are no longer used from Debian 9 Stretch onwards (in the respective OpenSSH server), and all functionality related to DSA keys should be dropped.

The following should be done:

  • Update the backup_server and backup_client roles.
    • Drop the use of DSA keys.
  • Update role reference documentation.
  • Update usage instructions.
  • Update test site configuration.
  • Update release notes.
