SSH automatic login assistance script

A while ago I did a write up on SSH keys, anyways I was looking into it a little more today and came across this handy little script that makes it… well simple. I didn’t write it myself, I found it over here. Go ahead and give it a try it works like a charm.

#!/bin/bash
# say: ./pussh.sh hostname
# Uploads your id_rsa.pub to the specified host, wrapped for readability
if [ ! -r ${HOME}/.ssh/id_rsa.pub ]; then
ssh-keygen -b 2048 -t rsa
fi
# Append to the copy on the remote server
cat ~/.ssh/id_rsa.pub | ssh ${USER}@ &quot;cat - &amp;gt;&amp;gt; .ssh/authorized_keys&quot;

if [ $? -eq 0 ]; then
echo &quot;Success&quot;
fi

#!/bin/bash

# say: ./pussh.sh hostname

# Uploads your id_rsa.pub to the specified host, wrapped for readability

if [ ! -r ${HOME}/.ssh/id_rsa.pub ]; then

ssh-keygen -b 2048 -t rsa

# Append to the copy on the remote server

cat ~/.ssh/id_rsa.pub | ssh ${USER}@ "cat - &gt;&gt; .ssh/authorized_keys"

if [ $? -eq 0 ]; then

echo "Success"
