Where to put ssh keys?

[xgamexoverx]

Hi All,

I am using the latest version of slacko puppy, and I am trying to ssh into my file server with my private key.

The problem is, I can't find where to put the key files so that they are found by ssh. I've tried /root/.ssh and /etc/.ssh, neither worked.

I also tried the -i option, but ssh complained saying that the string was too long.

Help much appreciated!
Many Thanks
Scott

Welcome Mate!

Provided you've got openssh installed, use it's "ssh-copy-id" to pass the key.

Thanks for the help! Once I installed openssh, -i started working properly anyway
