SSH的public_key和private_key
1、private_key [on your own PC]
Stored on the computer you log in from
2、public_key [on other PCs]
Stored on the .ssh/authorized_keys file on all the computers you want to log in to.
How it works ?
When you log in to a computer,
the SSH server uses the public key to "lock" messages in a way that can only be "unlocked" by your private key
