Hello Guys,
Somebody could help a noob here? I have a problem in the terminal mode, I want to skip typing the password each time I enter in the omega onion 2, so in the onion terminal mode, I type vi /etc/dropbear/authorized_keys
Then I copy-paste my supposed public key like this : fgrgdfahteydfgnyhdegvdfgr bla bla
then I am lost when I need to update/close or register the public key, I do not know which commands I must type in the keyboard. Somebody is telling me is Control + O and Esc, but no result. I am using this tutorial:
Here a youtube video
How to Add your Public Key to the Omega on a MAC
Step 1: Locating Existing Key Pair
Let’s first check to see if your computer already has a key pair. Open the Terminal App on your Mac and run:
ls ~/.ssh/id_rsa.pub
If this file exists, skip ahead to Step 3.
Step 2: Generating a Key Pair
No worries if you don’t have a key yet, follow this quick guide to generate a key pair.
Step 3: Copy Key Pair
Copy the contents of the public key file to the clipboard:
cat ~/.ssh/id_rsa.pub
Step 4: Create an Authorized Keys File
Connect to your Omega’s command prompt and create a new file:
vi /etc/dropbear/authorized_keys
And paste your public key into it.
And you’re done!
From now on, you’ll be able to securely connect to your Omega without having to type out a password every time.
