SSH authorization keys

#To set up SSH authentication keys on a Linux server and connect from Windows, you can follow these steps:

#Generate SSH keys on your computer (Windows):

1. Open Git Bash or PowerShell.
2. Enter the command ssh-keygen and follow the instructions to generate keys. By default, they will be saved in the user's folder C:UsersUserName.ssh.
3. After generating keys, you need to copy the contents of the id_rsa.pub file, which contains the public key.

#Install the public key on the Linux server:

1. Log in to the Linux server via an SSH client using your username and password.
2. Create a file authorized_keys in the .ssh folder with the command touch ~/.ssh/authorized_keys.
3. Open the authorized_keys file for editing with the command nano ~/.ssh/authorized_keys.
4. Paste the contents of the id_rsa.pub file from your computer into this file and save the changes.

#Connecting to the Linux server using keys:

To connect to the Linux server using keys, make sure that your SSH client on your computer supports key-based authentication.

Open Git Bash or another terminal, enter the command ssh username@<ip_address> and press Enter, where username is your login on the Linux server, and <ip_address> is the IP address of the Linux server.

If all settings are configured correctly, you should be connected to the Linux server without a password prompt.

I hope this helps you set up SSH keys on the Linux server and connect from Windows. If you have any questions or issues, please let me know.
