Public-Key Basics ssh/id_rsa and the public key is stored in ~/. ssh/id_rsa. pub . The private key should only be kept on your local system and should be encrypted using a passphrase that is at least as strong as any password you would normally use.
How do I generate RSA and DSA keys?
Procedure
- Use the ssh-keygen tool to create a key pair.
- Validate that the keys were generated.
- Enable key-based authentication in the /etc/ssh directory on the SSH server.
- Copy the dsa.
- If you have an existing authorized_keys file, edit it to remove any no-pty restrictions.
