Connect Smallstep to Lutril
Lutril connects to Smallstep with a bearer API token and only ever reads: it lists your SSH users, groups, grants and hosts to show who can reach which machines and who holds sudo. A read-only token is enough. You can optionally set the API base URL and the prefix of the groups Lutril should govern.
Access requested
- Bearer API token with READ scopes only - Lutril makes no write calls to Smallstep
- Reads /users, /groups, /grants and /hosts to derive who can reach which hosts, and with sudo or without
