Over the last two years I’ve ended up creating a large collection of websites and web applications on a variety of Linux servers that are hosted with different companies like GoDaddy and A2 Hosting.
Summary: This article is about how to create a public and private key pair so you can use ssh and scp without using a password, which in my example lets me automate a remote server backup process.
