Convert ssh-rsa key file to ssh2 key file
Another system needed the public key for the CMS. I sent it to them, and it looked like this (generated by ssh-keygen
):
ssh-rsa AAAAAbcdEEf001... user@hostname
They said they needed one in this format:
---- BEGIN SSH2 PUBLIC KEY ----
Comment: "2048-bit RSA, converted from OpenSSH by user@hostname"
AAAAAbcdEEf001...
---- END SSH2 PUBLIC KEY ----
Fortunately, this did the trick:
# Convert ssh-rsa key to ssh2 key
$ ssh-keygen -e -f ~/.ssh/id_rsa.pub > ~/.ssh/id_rsa_ssh2.pub
