Security

We need to disable ssh connection using the password.

Open the terminal on your PC(only this PC will have access to the server) and enter below command to get your public key.

cat .ssh/id_rsa.pub

Please, copy the result and paste it into the .ssh/authorized_keys on the server

nano .ssh/authorized_keys

Paste it using Ctrl + V

Open a new tab in the PC terminal and check that you can connect to your server without asking the password

ssh root@IP

If all is okay, you need to open sshd_config to disable password auth

sudo nano /etc/ssh/sshd_config

Find string with the name "PasswordAuthentication Yes" and change it to No. Make sure that only one note exists. There are cases when one of the notes is commented using "#" and other located at the end of file

PasswordAuthentication No
