Q

Example (using ssh command):

A

a user with a shell prompt on the machine host logs in to (remotehost) as (remoteuser) using ssh, using public key authentication. The (-i) option is used to specify the user’s private key file, which is (mylab.pem). The matching public key is already set up as an authorized key in the (remoteuser) account.

(First line)
[user@host ~]$ ssh -i mylab.pem remoteuser@remotehost

(Second line)
[remoteuser@remotehost ~]$

For this to work, the private key file must be readable only by the user that owns the file. In the preceding example, where the private key is in the mylab.pem file, the command chmod 600 mylab.pem could be used to ensure this. How to set file permissions is discussed in more detail in a later chapter.
