Install public keysΒΆ
sshx copyid
installs public keys (*.pub
) to remote hosts.
Assume you have an account host1 using password for authentication. Now you want to change it to use public key id_rsa.pub
for authentication. You can achieve this by two steps.
Step 1: copy public key to the host1.
sshx copyid id_rsa.pub host1
Step 2: set the corresponding identity to the account.
sshx update host1 -i id_rsa
You can also install public keys via jump hosts.
sshx copyid id_rsa.pub host1 -v host2
