Three SSH questions
1. Which computer can I generate the public-private key pair on, the server, the client, or either one?
2. What is the most kosher way to write the sshd_config file so that the SSH server will accept ANY connection with a valid username and password, without checking for installed public-private keys and whatnot? 3. If I generate the key pair on the server, how am I supposed to get id_dsa.pub (or id_rsa.pub) off of the server and onto the client/remote computer? The server is completely headless, no GUI, no CD burner, no USB ports, no email yet, no website served up yet, just a fixed IP address. I eventually overcame this problem because a friend had a server that I was able to SCP the id_dsa.pub file onto, but what if I didn't have access to a server already? Are there free servers for this out there? Is there a really easy way of emailing a file from the command line? I almost used imaplib in Python to place it on my IMAP server. I could have used Telnet to send the email manually, but I don't know how to do an attachment. Thanks. |
