UNIX for Dummies Questions & Answers

hi,

i have tried with passwordless shh in google..

i followed the below steps ...

user:~> ssh-keygen -t rsa

Enter file in which to save the key (/home/cantin/.ssh/id_rsa):key.txt

Enter passphrase (empty for no passphrase):

Enter same passphrase again:

till this step i did..


now it is described in that site thatssh-keygen: password-less SSH login)

The private key was saved in .ssh/id_rsa. This file is read-only and only for you. No one else must see the content of that file, as it is used to decrypt all correspondence encrypted with the public key.
The public key is save in .ssh/id_rsa.pub.
In this case, the content of file id_rsa.pub is
ssh-rsa AAAAB3NzaC1yc2EAAAABIwAAAIEArkwv9X8eTVK4F7pMlSt45pWoiakFkZMw
G9BjydOJPGH0RFNAy1QqIWBGWv7vS5K2tr+EEO+F8WL2Y/jK4ZkUoQgoi+n7DWQVOHsR
ijcS3LvtO+50Np4yjXYWJKh29JL6GHcp8o7+YKEyVUMB2CSDOP99eF9g5Q0d+1U2WVdB
WQM= cantin@sodium
It is one line in length.

Its content is then copied in file .ssh/authorized_keys of the system you wish to SSH to without being prompted for a password.



now i dont know which file to be copied in to remote machine...


please help me out???


thanks in advance,
