Once you entered the correct key passphrase, you are logged into the remote Linux server. You can select automatic unlocking the key when logging in so you don’t have to enter the passphrase in the future. This time you need to enter your RSA key passphrase to unlock the private key. ssh/authorized_keys file under the remote user’s home directory. This can be easily done with ssh-copy-id command, which is shipped with the openssh-client package. Hint: The remote server can run any Linux distro: Debian, Ubuntu, RHEL, CentOS, whatever, as long as it runs OpenSSH server, you can use the following method. Step 2: Upload Your Public Key to Remote Linux Server Run the ssh-keygen -t rsa -b 4096 command to create it again. If you see the “No such file or directory” error, that means the SSH keypair isn’t created. You should see the following output: /home/username/.ssh/id_rsa: OpenSSH private key ssh/id_rsa.pub file.įrom the randomart image we can see the length of the key ( RSA 4096). ssh/id_rsa file under your home directory. The private key (your identification) will be save in the.The passphrase is used to encrypt the private key. Next, enter a good passphrase at least 20 characters long. When asked which file to save the key, you can simply press Enter to use the default file. We use a 4096 bits key for stronger security. The above command generates an RSA type keypair. On your Ubuntu desktop (not your server), enter the following command in a terminal window. 2 Simple Steps to Set Up Passwordless SSH Login Step 1: Generate a Public/Private Keypair on Your Ubuntu Desktop The latter is also known as passwordless SSH login because you don’t need to enter your password. There’re basically two ways of authenticating user login with OpenSSH server: password authentication and public key authentication.
