Topic Topic 8 - Review of the steps in configuring a VT Display session for SSH client authentication using a public key

Here again are the steps we have covered for configuring a VT Display session for SSH client authentication using a public key:

  1. Use keytool to generate a public-private key pair.

  2. Use the Export Public Key utility (integrated into the SSH configuration window of the VT Display session configuration) to extract the public key from the keystore into a separate file.

  3. Configure the SSH server with the public key.

  4. Copy the keystore containing the public-private key pair to the workstation for the SSH client.

  5. Configure the SSH configuration window for client authentication using a public key.
