I then exit the ssh connection and type ssh into my local shellĪnd I am asked for a password. Vi authorized_keys shows my local's pubkey id_rsa.pub > authorized_keys (i know I could have just copied)Īuthorized_keys id_rsa id_rsa.pub key_backup $ (ls shows my local's id_rsa.pub in the ~ directory) Here are the steps I take on my git terminal: $ scp ~/.ssh/id_rsa.pub ssh password: *****

I have already created RSA keys on both my local and the shared dreamhost server. I'm using git bash as my terminal (which uses mingw32)

I am trying to setup an SSH key pairing with dreamhost and my local machine.
