Installing OVO Agents on the Managed Nodes
Secure Shell Installation Method
62
Enter passphrase:
Enter the same passphrase again:
Identification has been saved in
/home/username/.ssh/identity.
Your public key is:
1024 35 718535638573954[...] username@local
Public key has been saved in
/home/username/.ssh/identity.pub
c. Use ssh to connect to the managed node, and from there connect
back to the management server.
This step creates the $HOME/.ssh directory on the managed
node, as well as some files in that directory. After the directory is
created, log out from the managed node.
d. Copy the local public key to the managed node using one of the
following methods:
scp .ssh/identity.pub
user@managednode:.ssh/authorized_keys
ssh user@managednode ’cat >>
~/.ssh/authorized_keys’ < ~/.ssh/identity.pub
NOTE Since the file ~/.ssh/authorized_keys can contain many keys,
it is important that it is not overwritten during the preparations
for the installation on a new system. The second method for
transferring public key mentioned above, will not overwrite the
file.
e. During the OVO agent installation, ssh and scp executables
must reside at one of the following recommended locations:
/usr/bin/
/usr/sbin/
Create a soft link to the ssh executable. For example:
ln -s /usr/local/bin/ssh /usr/bin/ssh
ln -s /usr/local/bin/scp /usr/bin/scp
ln -s /usr/local/sbin/sshd /usr/sbin/sshd
