### Setting up a SSH Key
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Make sure to follow the below steps while creating SSH Keys and using them.
|
||||||
|
The best practice is create the SSH Keys on local machine not remote machine.
|
||||||
|
Login with username specified in Github Secrets. Generate a RSA Key-Pair:

|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
```bash
|
||||||
|
ssh-keygen -t rsa -b 4096 -C "your_email@example.com"
|
||||||
|
```

||||||
|

|

|
|
||||||
|
```bash
|
||||||
|
ssh-keygen -t ed25519 -a 200 -C "your_email@example.com"
|
||||||
|
```
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
</p>
|
||||||
|

|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Add newly generated key into Authorized keys. Read more about authorized keys [here](https://www.ssh.com/ssh/authorized_keys/).

Copy Private Key content and paste in Github Secrets.

||||||
|
|
||||||
|
**A note** from one of our readers: Depending on your version of SSH you might also have to do the following changes:
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
* Put the public key in `.ssh/authorized_keys2`
|
||||||
|
* Change the permissions of `.ssh` to 700
|
||||||
|
* Change the permissions of `.ssh/authorized_keys2` to 640
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
### If you are using OpenSSH
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
If you are currently using OpenSSH and are getting the following error:
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
```bash
|
||||||
|
ssh: handshake failed: ssh: unable to authenticate, attempted methods [none publickey]
|
||||||
|
```
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Make sure that your key algorithm of choice is supported. On Ubuntu 20.04 or later you must explicitly allow the use of the ssh-rsa algorithm. Add the following line to your OpenSSH daemon file (which is either `/etc/ssh/sshd_config` or a drop-in file under
|
||||||
|
`/etc/ssh/sshd_config.d/`):
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
```bash
|
||||||
|
CASignatureAlgorithms +ssh-rsa
|
||||||
|
```
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Alternatively, `ed25519` keys are accepted by default in OpenSSH. You could use this instead of rsa if needed:
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
```bash
|
||||||
|
ssh-keygen -t ed25519 -a 200 -C "your_email@example.com"
|
||||||
|
```
|
||||||
|
