pubkey 0.9.6

Public Key Distribution made simple.

Need to setup private/public key server connections for e.g. password less ssh communications? Tired of manually having to copy around public keys?

pubkey creates a RESTful endpoint and replies with the public key you want to share. Default is plain text so you can use curl to download and apply the public key with a single step. Optionally the key can be wrapped in a json document for other usecases.

Simply run the following command on the source server:

$ pubkey –auto # Starts the pubkey server with default settings and IP auto detection

INFO: pubkey file used: /Users/xxxxx/.ssh/id_rsa.pub INFO: pubkey server started at http://192.168.0.36:1080 Remote host command:

curl -s -S 192.168.0.36:1080 >> ~/.ssh/authorized_keys

Press ctrl-C to stop.

Then copy the curl statement provide above to the terminal of the server you would like to add the public key to:

curl -s -S 192.168.0.36:1080 >> ~/.ssh/authorized_keys

Done. If you did not get an error (e.g. unreachable host) you are all set.
