ssh setup

On local computer (your laptop) works on Mac and Linux:

$ cd # go into home directory
$ mkdir .ssh
$ cd .ssh
$ ssh-keygen -t rsa -f rpi_rsa
$ cat > config
Host 192.168.2.2 
    IdentityFile ~/.ssh/rpi_rsa
    User pi
^D
$ chmod 600 *
$ chmod 700 ../.ssh
$ cat rpi_rsa.pub

Copy contents of rpi_rsa.pub and put on RPi:

On RPi

$ cd
$ mkdir .ssh
$ cd .ssh
$ cat > rpi_rsa.pub
<PASTE contents of rpi_rsa.pub>
^D
$ cp rpi_rsa.pub authorized_keys
$ chmod 600 *
$ chmod 700 ../.ssh

Now on your localhost/laptop type:

$ ssh 192.168.2.2
