[BlueOnyx:07260] Passwordless login on BX 5.6
This may be a dumb question (prepare face for egg) but I have just installed a
new BX 5.6 box for Aventurin{e} backup but when I go to set up the key for
passwordless access I cannot find the ~/root/.ssh folder:
[root@datastore1 ~]# ls -al
total 100
drwxr-x--- 4 root root 4096 May 9 10:50 .
drwxr-xr-x 23 root root 4096 May 9 2011 ..
-rw--- 1 root root 184 May 9 10:54 .bash_history
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 24 Jan 6 2007 .bash_logout
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 191 Jan 6 2007 .bash_profile
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 82 May 9 10:45 .bashrc
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 100 Jan 6 2007 .cshrc

-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 410 May 9 10:50 id_rsa.pub drwxr

-rwxr-x--- 1 root root 3242 Dec 22 2008 network_settings.sh
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 1515 Feb 3 2006 PAM_AUTH_EXTERNAL.READ-ME
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 5144 May 6 09:03 README.1ST
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 129 Jan 6 2007 .tcshrc
Any idea where it has moved to or should I just create it? :)

Hi Colin,

You can just create it. However, it's a better idea to run ssh-keygen -t rsa
instead (as root), as that will generate the public and private key, which
will also create your missing /root/.ssh/ directory and will place the keys in
there.
