http://www.linuxquestions.org – Hi, I have a doubt in SSH passwordless authentication. I did the following in test and test1 servers. bakthava@test:~> ssh-keygen -t rsa Generating public/private rsa key pair. Enter file in which to save the key (/home/cantin/.ssh/id_rsa): Enter passphrase (empty for no passphrase): Enter same passphrase again: Your identification has been saved in /home/cantin/.ssh/id_rsa. Your public key has been saved in /home/cantin/.ssh/id_rsa.pub. The key fingerprint is: f6:61:a8:27:35:cf:4c:6d:13:22:70:cf:4c:c8:a0:23 bakthava@test I have given the passphrase as "testkey", then the priva (HowTos)

ssh-keygen issue on AIX 1 year 13 weeks ago

Hi ,

I am trying to create public key on my AIX server on other than home directory.However the command does not ask for Enter file in which to save the key : It is directly taking me to Enter the passphrase. I don't want to save the key in home dir as that is the home dir for other userID too. Please help. Here is the screenshot :

Code:

$ ssh-keygen -t dsa -b 1024 Generating 1024-bit ds

I have been using public key authentication on my servers for a while now, but I am experiencing issues on a new 'client' trying to connect to github. I have read many threads to verify that my permissions are set up correctly and have generated a new key for github. The problem I am facing is that ssh is asking for my passphrase even though I did not set a passphrase.

How can I run a script to log into a remote server and execute a remote ssh command without entering in my passphrase?

For example:

When I log onto a remote server and execute the git pull command I see ssh prompt me for my passphrase:

$ git pull origin master Enter passphrase for /home/v3ed2/.ssh/id_rsa:

Once I enter my passphrase I continue with the command.

I want to run a script that wil

I usually would get a prompt for a password but this time my terminal is asking for a passphrase for key.

I followed this guide https://help.ubuntu.com/community/En...hEncryptedSwap to enable hibernate with encrypted home folder. Everything works well except passphrase prompt: startup doesn't pauses and I have no ability to enter passphrase - system shows login screen right after the propmt.

secure private key 1 year 5 weeks ago

Hello all,

We have unix environment and we would like to use ssh public and private key to move between server using ssh.

I've somehow lost my id_rsa.pub file. I still have my id_rsa file. How do I recover the public key from the private key?

(This question came up after ssh-copy-id was reporting "ERROR: No identities found" while ssh-keygen reported "/root/.ssh/id_rsa already exists".
