Passwords stuck. They're ancient in IT terms. Sure, its how we do things, but that doesn't make it the right solution. Passwordless authentication, Zero Trust architecture, its where the industry is headed.

Well, the latest code to arrive in FreeIPA lets you authenticate to your gnome desktop, and even SSH using a centrally managed user, with passkey (yubikey in this video) authentication. No password at all, more secure.

Additional info: I mentioned the FreeIPA server version, here are the versions of other related packages freeipa-server: 4.11.1 freeipa-client:4.11.1 sssd: 2.9.4
