Re: SSH Privat key and login as root without a passwort
Hi,
Below is some instructions that I use, I wrote them so I hope they
make sense.
Creating and using a private/public key set
Keys are used as a form of authentication (passwords can also be used). To
create a public/private key set the command ssh-keygen -d this will create
the appropriate keys and place them in the specified directory (default
/home/user/.ssh . To use your public key you must first upload the
id_dsa.pub to the remote server of what you wish to connect. This file
should then be attached to the authorized_keys2 file of the user. To do this
use
cat id_dsa.pub >> /home/user/.ssh/authorized_keys2 . You should now be able
to Ssh to the remote machine without typing a password.
They were written a little while ago but I have used them recently and they
still seem to work.
