Hello,

I am administrator of SuperMicro server with IPMI card with Dropbear ssh 
server v0.50. I would ask you for help with problem with login on ssh 
server by using public key.

I have Dropbear installed on IPMI card in SuperMicro server. Here is a 
liitle look on disk:

Filesystem                Size      Used Available Use% Mounted on
/dev/ram0                15.9M     15.9M         0 100% /
/dev/shm                  1.0M    432.0k    592.0k  42% /var
/dev/mtdblock3            4.9M      4.9M         0 100% /usr/local/www
/dev/mtdblock1          960.0k    260.0k    700.0k  27% /conf

When I want to login to the Dropbear ssh server I need 
~/.ssh/authorized_keys file. BUT I can not write to the /home directory, 
because it is just a read-only file system.

My question is:

Is there possibility how to change ~/ directory in Dropbear ssh server? 
For example, new path would be: /conf/home/admin/.ssh/authorized_keys. 
If it is possible, where in Dropbear configuration could I do it?
