Noob's guide to setting up "public key" thingy?
Can someone point me to a noob-friendly guide to setting up a public key to use Expandrive/Mac to SSH into a file server running Ubuntu 8.10(desktop)?
Currently I use a password, which works wonderfully. But the key setup sounds much more secure. But I need help setting it up -- both on the Ubuntu server, and on the Mac. Thanks!

Inappropriate?Hi there,
Here is a guide that looks pretty good. I found it in a Google search for "using ssh public keys" so if that one doesn't suit your needs, there are several other hits on that query which cover the topic from different angles.
Cheers,
