SSSD now looks up users using a certificate. I don't think we should implement a yubikey provider per se.

It might still be interesting if we want to support 2-factor-authentication for local users. But I agree it does not mean that we need a yubikey provider per se, we should consider if we can integrate or co-operate with pam_yubico first.

OK, then let's not close this one yet.

I believe sssd now supports yubikey4.

SSSD supports Yubikey4 with certificate/Smartcard authentication because Yubikey4 offers a PKCS#11 interface which is used by Smartcards as well.

The "classical" one-time-password mode is only supported when used together with FreeIPA.

I still think that it might make sense to think about how pam_yubico (or other PAM modules for other tokens e.g. RSA) can be used here.

Maybe we can add a 'auth_provider_second' option and use the current proxy code to call pam_yubico (or others) with a second factor for local users?
