Description

From version 5.7 onward, openssh has support for elliptic curve DSA keys.

I’ve added a fact for this keytype to the facter master branch (https://github.com/pieterlexis/facter/tree/sshecdsakey). The fact works, but will probably need a unit test or something. Pull request is on the way.

$ RUBYLIB=./lib ruby bin/facter | grep sshec

Hi Pieter – can you sign a CLA for this? I’ve merged it in already without realizing you haven’t signed it yet – this is normal practice for us before we accept submissions:

Can you sign it retroactively?
