  1. Go to \/root\/.ssh directory (If directory does not exist create it)<\/li>\n
  2. cat known_hosts (If it does not exist create it)<\/li>\n
  3. ssh-keygen -t rsa (Create the private and public keys)<\/li>\n
  4. Enter passphase (Hit enter twice for none)<\/li>\n
  5. ls -a (You will see now the Private Local Machine Key and the Public Server Key)<\/li>\n
  6. cat id_rsa.pub<\/li>\n
  7. Copy the id_rsa.pub<\/li>\n
  8. In the .ssh directory run the following command
    \n# touch authorized_keys<\/li>\n
  9. Copy the id_rsa.pub key in the authorized_keys file<\/li>\n
  10. If you did not already did this step you are good to go!
    \nnavigate to \/etc\/ssh\/sshd_config<\/li>\n
  11. Navigate to …
    \n# To disable tunneled clear text passwords, change to no here!
    \n#PasswordAuthentication yes
    \n#PermitEmptyPasswords no
    \nPasswordAuthentication yes<\/span><\/li>\n
  12. You have to set the PasswordAuthentication no<\/span><\/li>\n
  13. For the rest of the installation just follow the video!<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    Here is what I do after, download the private key id_rsa to your computer. Open filezilla and add a new connection by using “LOGON TYPE: Key File”<\/p>\n

    \"RSA_KEY\"<\/a><\/p>\n

    Add the key file that you downloaded “id_rsa” then Filezilla will prompt you to created the final key file by converting it to .ppk “I named my keyfile filezilla.ppk”<\/p>\n

    When the new key is saved you will be able to login to the ftp server.<\/p>\n

    P.S Use the same filezilla.ppk key for PUTTY \ud83d\ude09<\/p>\n

    Also you will notice that if you use CSF you will have a stronger security!<\/p>\n
