SSH Tips and Tricks

ssh X to log in, of course but:

  • ssh-keygen to create an SSH keypair
  • ssh-copy-id <server> to copy the keypair over
  • Now you can login using the ssh key – if you have no password setup you will need no password to log in.
  • If you rebuild the server you will get warnings of host identification has changed.  To remove something from the ‘known hosts’ file use  ssh-keygen -R hostname
(These notes are mainly just for me, but if they help someone else out, all the better!)
