Open a terminal on your Linux system.
Generate a new key:
ssh-keygen -t ed25519 -C "your_username@lengau"
Press Enter to accept the default file location.
Keep the private key safe in:
~/.ssh/id_ed25519
Show your public key:
cat ~/.ssh/id_ed25519.pub
If you generated the key on your computer, copy the contents of your public key file (the file name with extension .pub) and paste it on the login node when you register the key.
