 I'm not sure what you're saying beyond that point.

I am talking about asymmetric key cryptography which is also used to sign
apps. All you need is you private (secret) key. It's in your keystore
file (which simply can holds more private keys than one. If you (or
anyone) can have your private key and know the passphrase s/he
will be able to sign on behalf of you and nobody will catch the
difference. So you only need the key or keystore copied/moved
to other machine.

PS: that's why it's important to keep private secure and have strong
passphrase. Once both leak you're in trouble.

More on wikipedia if you are not familiar with cryptgraphy subjects:

[android-developers] Changing from one dev machine to another, keystore question

2010-08-27 Thread Chris Stewart
To this point, I've been doing development on multiple machines but always
packaging for deployment on the same machine.  If I want to package for
deployment on another machine, will simply copying the keystore file to the
new machine do the trick?  Anything else I need to be concerned about when
doing this?

I have re-packaged my apps using the same keystore file on Linux,
Windows, and Mac without any issues.

Sure... the key is the same, no matter what machine it's on. I've even 
emailed it to myself and installed it on different machines.
