Public/Private key pair
This needs to be generated on and used on your '''client''' (the user/machine you're connecting '''from'''). The private key is the equivalent of a password, that's why it's private. And a private key is used by one user, that's why it's stored in a user's ~/.ssh/ directory.
You generate a new keypair with this command(press enter for all the questions):
<source lang="bash">ssh-keygen -t rsa</source>
