How To Create SSH Keys
<pre class="code-pre ">$bash>ssh-keygen
Generating public/private rsa key pair. <br>Enter file in which to save the key (/home/username/.ssh/id_rsa):
</pre>
 
The utility will prompt you to select a location for the keys that will be generated. By default, the keys will be stored in the <code>~/.ssh</code> directory within your user's home directory. The private key will be called <code>id_rsa</code> and the associated public key will be called <code>id_rsa.pub</code>.
