Password based SSH auth in ucore-minimal

[philippgille]

Hello 👋 , I came across this project while researching Aurora/Bazzite/Bluefin and have a question:

For ucore-minimal the list of changes over fedora-coreos contains:

• Enables password based SSH auth (required for locally running cockpit web interface)

Don't most people nowadays prefer to disable that and go with key-based auth instead? And isn't Cockpit usually run on the server that's being managed, instead of on the local machine? If yes, is it worth to enable password based auth by default only for this uncommon Cockpit setup?

Or did I misunderstand the bullet point?

Cockpit requires password based ssh login
