Message definition (SSH Keys)
== Generating an SSH Key ==
Using PK requires some initial configuration, but once this is done it is both more secure and more convenient.
To use PK, you must generate a key pair and install the public key on the systems you intend to connect with.

To use keys for authentication, we:

  • Generate a key pair (private and public)
  • Copy the public key to remote systems we wish to be able to log into and add it to the desired user's authorized_keys file (see using ssh keys in linux)
  • Ensure permissions are set properly, as described in using ssh keys in linux
  • Test.
