SSH Keys Issue

When running rsync you get an error a bit like this:

  The authenticity of host '192.168.1.10 (192.168.1.10)' can't be established.
  ECDSA key fingerprint is 65:76:dc:ba:74:d6:c7:75:7f:21:58:c6:66:42:23:7d.

This Worked for Us in the End

From the command line:

  ssh-keygen
  
  Press enter for every prompt
  
  This will place your local key in the remote server

Then run this:

  ssh-copy-id -i ~/.ssh/id_rsa.pub 192.168.1.10
  
  Enter the remote server password

Now you should be able to ssh to the server without a password

  ssh ipaddress
