Set up ssh on a Raspberry Pi

file.sh

# ssh on raspberry pi

# in these examples I use 192.168.1.10 as an example ip address for the raspberry pi

# enable ssh either using raspi-config or by placing a file named 'ssh' in the boot partition

# connect from a client
ssh [email protected]

# set up passwordless access
##

# check for existing keys on the client ('id_rsa.pub' file)
ls -la ~/.ssh

# if no public key found
ssh-keygen

# copy key over to the raspberry pi using ssh-copy-id
ssh-copy-id [email protected]

# test your connection
ssh [email protected]

# connect using an alias
##

# create the config file
touch ~/.ssh/config
vim ~/.ssh/config

# example file (macos)
