Generate ssh file
To log in to a server with ssh keys you need to first generate a key
file using ssh-keygen
and get two files id_rsa and
id_rsa.pub. The .pub file is a public key, you need to put it into
.ssh/authorized_keys file.
Upload it to the server
You can paste it yourself or use
ssh-copy-id -i key_file user@host
to upload it
automatically.
Or you can do it manually:
- login to your server and go to ~/.ssh dir
vi authorized_keys
- Paste the content of id_rsa.pub into it
