Hello,
I have two virtual machines ubuntu on virtual box vm1 and vm2 , i'd like to use ssh to connect from vm1 to vm2, please what's the configuration should do?
Thank you
Log onto both VMs as the user you want to ssh from / to.
On vm2 and then on vm1:
ssh-keygen
(press enter a few times)
While still on vm1:
scp ~user/.ssh/id_rsa.pub user@vm2:/home/user/.ssh/authorized_keys (you need to enter the password)
scp user@vm2:/home/user/.ssh/id_rsa.pub ~user/.ssh/authorized_keys
Change "user" to whatever the username should be.
If .ssh is already configured, then:
scp ~user/.ssh/id_rsa.pub user@vm2:/home/user/.ssh/key.vm1 (you need to enter the password)
scp user@vm2:/home/user/.ssh/id_rsa.pub ~user/.ssh/key.vm2
cat ~user/.ssh/key.vm1 >> ~user/.ssh/authorized_keys
ssh user@vm2 "cat /home/user/.ssh/key.vm2 >> /home/user/.ssh/authorized_keys"
First check that you can at least ping each VM from the other one.
