    okay so i've generated the key on my work laptop, i know how to send the pubkey to remote servers I've done that before for rsync, but how do I import the private key to my home PC so be able to use the same key everywhere

    private key? it's just a file, put it on a usb for now?

    same thing, im just retarded and don't know key terminology

    they're just files with text, you can move them around just like any other files

    id_rsa = private key
    id_rsa.pub = public key

    open with a text editor and you'll see it's just a line with characters

    yeah thats just the ssl certs in me speaking, i'll keep the id file in vaultwarden and chuck it in the .ssh folder when i get home to test it out

    Yes should be

    I don't know exactly how you reference it in windows but if you looked at my ssh config you should just have to change IdentityFile to the path to that private key and it should work

    in windows you can also convert it to a ppk or whatever the format is with puttygen

    I'm full of improper IT practices if you want I got plenty more you can all discuss

    I'm honestly all for that, for examlpe, I use root for everything. But not when it's HARDER

    Keeping the root account enabled is gross. I also just don't trust templates... Re-install every time > disable root.

    I don't know what's on that template. I know what's on there if I install it myself.

    Means I have to fix IPv6..., hopefully sunny doesn't strike me down.

    What do you reinstall with? Netboot?

    Netboot if possible to install Debian, otherwise Debian net install every time.

    Meh. Want that fully automated. I used a variant of moenet / installnet a few times. But pain too fix weird issues

    Why even use Putty

    Even windows can handle .ssh/config now right

    Only took them 30 years but it was worth it

    Keep things simple IMO

    because i don't know how to connect with an ssh key using command prompt but i CAN do it with a password

    Inside .ssh/config you just reference location of your key

    No won’t ever have to enter it when ssh’ing in, it’ll look like magic

    and i have to do this for every device i want to ssh from?

    best solution for that use a bastillon.
