Ed, Here's what I've done; there's still something left for me to do. On laptop: 1) ssh-keygen (using same passphrase as on other hosts). 2) ssh-add 3) tried ssh-copy-id to desktop but was denied. 4) copied ~/.ssh/id_ed25519.pub to thumb drive. 5) added desktop's ~/.ssh/id_25519.pub to laptop's ~/.ssh/known_hosts. On desktop: 1) added laptop's ~/.ssh/id_ed25519.pub to ~/.ssh/known_hosts. > cat laptop_key.pub > ~/.ssh/authorized_keys Now I'm confused about what should be in each host's ~/.ssh/authorized_keys and ~/.ssh/known_hosts. Do the id_ed25519.pub files from one host belong in the authorized_keys files on other hoste? If so, what goes in the known_hosts file in each host?
