Setting up or reusing an ssh key on ubuntu OS
ssh, ssh-keys
Solution
You can copy your older ssh keys to the new machine.
Basically, copy your `~/.ssh/id_rsa` and `~/.ssh/id_rsa.pub` files to this new machine at same location, and you should be able to ssh in all right. You might need to explicitly specify the user account you want to `ssh` into like `ssh user@server`.
Also, you might want to go through more answers on reusing ssh keys.
Problem
Is there a way to reuse my existing ssh key on one linux machine on a PC with Ubuntu OS,am trying to access gerrit on a Ubuntu OS PC and as expected ssh connection needs to be established. I don’t want to run generate a new ssh key with my email id as it might mess-up my current ssh connection, how to proceed forward? any inputs Thanks
