SSH Key Installation

A tiny script to copy your SSH public keys from your local machine to a remote server. It’ll search your .ssh/ folder for known public keys and if it finds one, it’ll add it to the remote authorized_keys file.

Install

  gem sources -a http://gems.github.com
  sudo gem install adamcooke-key-installer

Usage

Install the default public key to a server called myserver.com for a user called ‘dave’ 

  install-key dave@myserver.com

Install a key from /home/user/my_key.pub to a server 

  install-key phil@anotherserver.com --key /home/user/my_key.pub

Install default keys to a server running an un-standard SSH port 

  install-key sarah@mylittlebox.com -p 12345
