SSH for Humans

May 14, 2018

Let’s Encrypt should really think about getting into the business of managing SSH keys - it would save everyone (e.g, me) the headache of looking up credentials which haven’t been used since…

Actually, I have no idea, Whoops.

While it would be nice if DreamHost supported ED25519, 4096 bits will have to do for now. Transmit 5 can use them or even generate keys on its own - thanks to the instructions in this video from @antichrista - but for whatever reason won’t import my public key.

I don’t directly SCP or SFTP all that often, so it isn’t a dealbreaker. Gulp handles my deploy script just fine.
