I am the administrator...fairly new one and learning...but still...

In any case I got it to work...

Corona...never done what you are suggesting...I can see its a script. Do I need to create the .ssh folder with the authorized keys and known_hosts files already in there, or does this create them automatically?

ssh-import-lp-id

ssh-import-id(1)						    ssh-import							  ssh-import-id(1)

NAME

       ssh-import-id  -  retrieve one or more public keys from a public keyserver (Launchpad.net by default) and append them to the current user's
       authorized_keys file (or some other specified file)

SYNOPSIS

       ssh-import-id [options] USER_ID_1 [USER_ID_2] ... [USER_ID_n]

OPTIONS

	-h | --help	   usage
	-o | --output F    write output to file 'F' (default ~/.ssh/authorized_keys, use "-" for standard out)

DESCRIPTION

       This utility will securely contact a public keyserver (https://launchpad.net by default) and retrieve one or more user's public	keys,  and
       append these to the current user's ~/.ssh/authorized_keys file.

       The  system  administrator  can	change	the source URL used by ssh-import-id(1) by editing the configuration file, /etc/ssh/ssh_import_id,
       which is sourced to obtain the value of URL.  By default, URL="https://launchpad.net/~%s/+sshkeys".  Note that this url really  MUST  be  a
       secure,	https  url with a valid, signed certificate or else your system will be vulnerable to man-in-the-middle attacks!  The "%s" will be
       populated by ssh-import-id(1) with the value(s) of USER_ID_1 [USER_ID_2] ... [USER_ID_n].
