Research direction

Start by tracing the SSH AuthProvider and the command interfaces to determine where the authenticated user is currently lost. Define how that user should be exposed to commands, then confirm that the relevant interfaces and SSH command flow consistently provide the authentication data.

Description

Hi,

In case of SSH there is an AuthProvider used for authentication, but the authenticated user is not accessible in the commands, however it would be very useful (required in my case).

In my opinion this would require many changes in the different interfaces.

Are there any plans in this direction?

Thank you and best regards,
Csaba
