SSH: What’s the difference or interplay between /etc/ssh/[host files] and ~/.ssh/[public key]
In all, the SSH connection requires two key pairs –
Your Client software checks the Server’s (host) public key against data the server sends encrypted with the host private key. This requires you to have a copy of its public key, which you’re handed at the first connection and your client stores if you approve of it.
The Server checks your authentication data encrypted with your user private key using the copy of your user public key that it has a copy of because you put it there (or had someone put there for you).
How can I run a program remotely via SSH but display locally
By adding the «-Y» flag to the ssh command, the display will automatically be redirected to your local computer.
ssh -Y <remoteip>
Then, if you start Firefox (or any other X application) in that ssh session, it will be displayed locally. (If you have a xserver running locally of course)
