ssh-keyadd

NAME

SYNOPSIS

ssh-keyadd [ -y ] [ -u user ]

AVAILABILITY

DESCRIPTION

This command is used to help to efficiently add the needed SSH keys to ensure the connectivity for WA2L/edrc needed for the commands as remote_shell, remote_copy, filedist, rcmd and the edrc trunk functionality.

Furthermore the SSH daemon configuration file is modified that way that it is allowed to connect as root. To make the configuration change active, the HUP signal is sent to the SSH daemon.

With ssh-keyadd it is also possible to get an overview of the current SSH key situation due to the fact, that the tool gives an easy to read consolidated view of the applied keys.
