Rename .pub and private key
I wish to generate a id_dsa.pub and id_dsa (Public and Private Key) in a common user group. I have checked the .ssh directory and i have already found id_dsa.pub and id_dsa existing.
Is that OK if i create both the keys in my home direcotry, rename it to jjj.pub and jjj and move to Common user directory. If we rename the public and private keys, will it work.
Please reply.
