I am trying to copy a file from remote machine using scp. I followed the steps to configure public/private key usage. But still prompting for password when I do ssh.
I did the following steps to configure scp without asking password
Step 1 : local host
Code:
> ssh-keygen -t rsa
and when prompted for pass phrase I hit enter. Then id_rsa , id_rsa.pub files created in <usershome>/.ssh directory.
Step 2 : local host
Code:
> scp id_rsa.pub <remoteIP>:/tmp/mykey
, prompted for password as usual and provided password to copy.
Step 3 : Remote host
Code:
> cd ~/.ssh
cat /tmp/mykey >> authorized_keys2
step 4 : Remote host
Code:
> ln -s authorized_keys2 authorized_keys
step 5 : local host
Code:
> ssh -v <remote host>
