Securely sync VDS FastDL files with web server

Post by Ta4our »

Hi,

I want to sync my FastDL files from my VDS to my web server, but can't get it working properly. I sent over my VDS public key to the web server but it still prompts me for the web server password.

I'm not sure I know what you mean by "VDS public key". What method are you using to move the files over? Also, which OS is the VDS running?

Where did you put the key? On the webhosting, you'd need to create a ".ssh" folder and then put an "authorized_keys" file in it that has the public key as output by the client that you will be using (with Linux, likely the standard ssh client, and you would have created it with a command like "ssh-keygen -t ed25519 -a 100 -f ~/.ssh/id_ed25519"). You should then be able to connect from the client without being prompted for a password.
