SSH Keys

Post by Jimer Lins » Sat Jan 31, 2015 3:49 am

Hey folks- for those looking to download the backups from time to time, would you object to using public keys instead of passwords? The server gets a lot of noise in the security logs from botnets trying to brute-force SSH. Even though the SFTP account is chrooted and locked down, I'd like to take the extra step of only allowing specific authentication from known users with public keys.

You guys comfortable with SSH?
