    • I found some problem when generate private key from Putty Keygen or Vandake SecureCRT that will generate public key in standard type and it cannot be use in authorized_keys file in Linux. So, this is the way to convert standard public key file type to be format that can add to authorized_keys

    1. Copy public key to Linux (Destination which you would like to automatically authentication)
    2. #ssh-keygen -t rsa -f publickeyfile -i
    3. copy STDOUT to authorized_keys
    4. Done
