How to add ssh keys to my .local computer to get acess to a transfered image

Posted January 25, 2015

A friend help me set-up a core os image with an application, so he send me the image and i created a droplet with his key. Core-OS just allow access with ssh keys , so he send me his ssh keys (id_dsa and id_dsa.pub)

How can i add the keys to my .local ubuntu machine in order to have access to the droplet ?

Thanks

You should just need to drop the keys in the .ssh folder in your home directory. SSH will look for them there when making a connection.
