@Findus:stratum0.orgfindusHi, I tried agenix together with nix-generate for proxmox images and I still need to do one rebuild-switch after deploying the resulting images to have the secret mount present. Is there a trick to have them available on first boot?08:12:47

I've run into the same issue (not proxmox but generating qcow2). I couldn't find a workaround

@ivy:fargone.shIvyi think ive implemented restarting units like sops-nix?08:02:47
@ivy:fargone.shIvyis that something people would want?08:02:56
@ivy:fargone.shIvyi have it working on darwin08:03:03
@Findus:stratum0.orgfindusI've read the source code a little and it seems like agenix also uses systemd to mount the secrets partition when sysusers are enabled (https://mynixos.com/nixpkgs/option/systemd.sysusers.enable), but when enabling that every user defined in the nix config must be a system user, dad did not work out for me08:50:17

@whispers:catgirl.cloudwhispers [& it/fae]for what it's worth, it also uses the systemd service if userborn is used, which can handle both normal and system users12:59:21
@ivy:fargone.shIvyhow do you use agenix rekey over like ssh13:18:55
@ivy:fargone.shIvylike how can i do that "sanely"13:19:01
@k900:0upti.meK900Do you mean, like, with a key stored in a forwarded SSH agent?13:19:57
@ivy:fargone.shIvylike that13:20:16
@ivy:fargone.shIvybut i know that ssh agents can only sign not encrypt or decrypt13:20:25
@k900:0upti.meK900Yeah you can't13:20:39
@k900:0upti.meK900That's a design decision by the SSH agent13:20:45
@ivy:fargone.shIvyyes13:20:50
@ivy:fargone.shIvyso i wanna know what would be another thing i can forward over ssh to use agenix-rekey13:21:07
@k900:0upti.meK900You basically have to get your key onto the machine that you're running rekey on13:21:08
@k900:0upti.meK900There is no such thing13:21:13
@ivy:fargone.shIvyugh13:21:16
