Password less login's between servers ( ssh , scp , rsync)

For a particular user


/home/username/.ssh   ( go to this directory if that directory does not exists create one with name .ssh )

The key generated for password less login is user specific. So create separate keys for each user.


Goto .ssh directory

ssh-keygen -t rsa  (give that command and click next next as usual :) )


It will generate id_rsa and id_rsa.pub two files

one is private key and another is public key

now append the contents of id_rsa.pub to file authorized_keys in the system you want to connect

the file authorized_keys will be in .ssh directory of the other system if that file is not there create it.

cat id_rsa.pub >> ~/.ssh/authorized_keys

now try user@192.168.1.2 ( if 192.168.1.2 is the system you want to connect without password)
