Choose an SSH key instead of the default to connect to a specific remote server. ~ / .ssh / id_rsa
You have at least 2 options to choose the key used by ssh. for instance.~/.ssh/key1 [email protected]
Method 1 - Specify the key on the command line with the -i
ssh option .
The command line to use is:
ssh -i ~/.ssh/key1 [email protected]
Method 2 - Use the ssh configuration file. This is useful when you don't have the option -i
available, like when using git, rsync, or lftp.
You can add ~/.ssh/config
the following lines to your
Host ejemplo.com
IdentityFile ~/.ssh/key1
This tells ssh that for the host ejemplo.com
, use the file key~/.ssh/key1
