Bash Command to Add an SSH Key to a Remote Host
15th June 2012 in Coding Tags: linux, system-administration
Today I want to share with you an useful bash command to quickly add an SSH key to a remote host.
Assuming you already generated an SSH key for your local machine and public RSA key access is active on your remote machine, the command is:
$ cat /home/<local_user>/.ssh/id_rsa.pub | ssh <remote_user>@<host> 'cat >> .ssh/authorized_keys'
Substitute <local_user> with the username on your local machine (eg: nemesis), <remote_user> with the user for which you want to log in on your remote server (eg: root) and <host> with the host (eg: nemesisdesign.net).
Nice isn't it? Thanks to Andrea Ferraresi for this tip.
