.SH DESCRIPTION
|
||||
.BR ssh-copy-id
|
||||
is a script that uses ssh to log into a remote machine and
|
||||
append the indicated identity file to that machine's
|
||||
.B ~/.ssh/authorized_keys
|
||||
file.
|
||||
.PP
|
||||
If the
|
||||
.B -i
|
||||
option is given then the identity file (defaults to
|
||||
.BR ~/.ssh/id_rsa.pub )
|
||||
is used, regardless of whether there are any keys in your
|
||||
.BR ssh-agent .
|
||||
Otherwise, if this:
|
||||
.PP
|
||||
.B " ssh-add -L"
|
||||
.PP
|
||||
provides any output, it uses that in preference to the identity file.
|
||||
.PP
|
||||
If the
|
||||
.B -i
|
||||
option is used, or the
|
||||
.B ssh-add
|
||||
produced no output, then it uses the contents of the identity
|
||||
file. Once it has one or more fingerprints (by whatever means) it
|
||||
uses ssh to append them to
|
||||
.B ~/.ssh/authorized_keys
|
||||
on the remote machine (creating the file, and directory, if necessary.)
|
||||
|
||||
.SH NOTES
|
||||
This program does not modify the permissions of any
|
||||
pre-existing files or directories. Therefore, if the remote
|
||||
.B sshd
|
||||
has
|
||||
.B StrictModes
|
||||
set in its
|
||||
configuration, then the user's home,
|
||||
.B ~/.ssh
|
||||
folder, and
|
||||
.B ~/.ssh/authorized_keys
|
||||
file may need to have group writability disabled manually, e.g. via

.Sh DESCRIPTION
|
||||
.Nm
|
||||
is a script that uses
|
||||
.Xr ssh 1
|
||||
to log into a remote machine (presumably using a login password,
|
||||
so password authentication should be enabled, unless you've done some
|
||||
clever use of multiple identities). It assembles a list of one or more
|
||||
fingerprints (as described below) and tries to log in with each key, to
|
||||
see if any of them are already installed (of course, if you are not using
|
||||
.Xr ssh-agent 1
|
||||
this may result in you being repeatedly prompted for pass-phrases).
|
||||
It then assembles a list of those that failed to log in, and using ssh,
|
||||
enables logins with those keys on the remote server. By default it adds
|
||||
the keys by appending them to the remote user's
|
||||
.Pa ~/.ssh/authorized_keys
|
||||
(creating the file, and directory, if necessary). It is also capable
|
||||
of detecting if the remote system is a NetScreen, and using its
|
||||
.Ql set ssh pka-dsa key ...
|
||||
command instead.
|
||||
.Pp
|
||||
The options are as follows:
|
||||
.Bl -tag -width Ds
|
||||
.It Fl i Ar identity_file
|
||||
Use only the key(s) contained in
|
||||
.Ar identity_file
|
||||
(rather than looking for identities via
|
||||
.Xr ssh-add 1
|
||||
or in the
|
||||
.Ic default_ID_file ) .
|
||||
If the filename does not end in
|
||||
.Pa .pub
|
||||
this is added. If the filename is omitted, the
|
||||
.Ic default_ID_file
|
||||
is used.
|
||||
.Pp
|
||||
Note that this can be used to ensure that the keys copied have the
|
||||
comment one prefers and/or extra options applied, by ensuring that the
|
||||
key file has these set as preferred before the copy is attempted.
|
||||
.It Fl n
|
||||

|
||||
prints the key(s) that would have been installed.
|
||||
.It Fl h , Fl ?
|
||||
Print Usage summary
|
||||
.It Fl p Ar port , Fl o Ar ssh_option
|
||||
These two options are simply passed through untouched, along with their
|
||||
argument, to allow one to set the port or other
|
||||
.Xr ssh 1
|
||||
options, respectively.
|
||||
.Pp
|
||||
Rather than specifying these as command line options, it is often better to use (per-host) settings in
|
||||
.Xr ssh 1 Ns 's
|
||||
configuration file:
|
||||
.Xr ssh_config 5 .
|
||||
.El
|
||||
.Pp
|
||||
Default behaviour without
|
||||
.Fl i ,
|
||||
is to check if
|
||||
.Ql ssh-add -L
|
||||
provides any output, and if so those keys are used. Note that this results in
|
||||
the comment on the key being the filename that was given to
|
||||
.Xr ssh-add 1
|
||||
when the key was loaded into your
|
||||
.Xr ssh-agent 1
|
||||
rather than the comment contained in that file, which is a bit of a shame.
|
||||
Otherwise, if
|
||||
.Xr ssh-add 1
|
||||
provides no keys contents of the
|
||||
.Ic default_ID_file
|
||||
will be used.
|
||||
.Pp
|
||||
The
|
||||
.Ic default_ID_file
|
||||
is the most recent file that matches:
|
||||
.Pa ~/.ssh/id*.pub ,
|
||||
(excluding those that match
|
||||
.Pa ~/.ssh/*-cert.pub )
|
||||
so if you create a key that is not the one you want
|
||||
.Nm
|
||||
to use, just use
|
||||
.Xr touch 1
|
||||
on your preferred key's
|
||||
.Pa .pub
|
||||
file to reinstate it as the most recent.
|
||||
.Pp
|
||||
.Sh EXAMPLES
|
||||
If you have already installed keys from one system on a lot of remote
|
||||
hosts, and you then create a new key, on a new client machine, say,
|
||||
it can be difficult to keep track of which systems on which you've
|
||||
installed the new key. One way of dealing with this is to load both
|
||||
the new key and old key(s) into your
|
||||
.Xr ssh-agent 1 .
|
||||
Load the new key first, without the
|
||||
.Fl c
|
||||
option, then load one or more old keys into the agent, possibly by
|
||||
ssh-ing to the client machine that has that old key, using the
|
||||
.Fl A
|
||||
option to allow agent forwarding:
|
||||
.Pp
|
||||
.D1 user@newclient$ ssh-add
|
||||
.D1 user@newclient$ ssh -A old.client
|
||||
.D1 user@oldl$ ssh-add -c
|
||||
.D1 No ... prompt for pass-phrase ...
|
||||
.D1 user@old$ logoff
|
||||
.D1 user@newclient$ ssh someserver
|
||||
.Pp
|
||||
now, if the new key is installed on the server, you'll be allowed in
|
||||
unprompted, whereas if you only have the old key(s) enabled, you'll be
|
||||
asked for confirmation, which is your cue to log back out and run
|
||||
.Pp
|
||||
.D1 user@newclient$ ssh-copy-id -i someserver
|
||||
.Pp
|
||||
The reason you might want to specify the -i option in this case is to
|
||||
ensure that the comment on the installed key is the one from the
|
||||
.Pa .pub
|
||||
file, rather than just the filename that was loaded into you agent.
|
||||
It also ensures that only the id you intended is installed, rather than
|
||||
all the keys that you have in your
|
||||
.Xr ssh-agent 1 .
|
||||
Of course, you can specify another id, or use the contents of the
|
||||
.Xr ssh-agent 1
|
||||
as you prefer.
|
||||
.Pp
|
||||
Having mentioned
|
||||
.Xr ssh-add 1 Ns 's
|
||||
.Fl c
|
||||
option, you might consider using this whenever using agent forwarding
|
||||
to avoid your key being hijacked, but it is much better to instead use
|
||||
.Xr ssh 1 Ns 's
|
||||
.Ar ProxyCommand
|
||||
and
|
||||
.Fl W
|
||||
option,
|
||||
to bounce through remote servers while always doing direct end-to-end
|
||||
authentication. This way the middle hop(s) don't get access to your
|
||||
.Xr ssh-agent 1 .
|
||||
A web search for
|
||||
.Ql ssh proxycommand nc
|
||||
should prove enlightening (N.B. the modern approach is to use the
|
||||
.Fl W
|
||||
option, rather than
|
||||
.Xr nc 1 ) .
