# ssh DSA keys

Run the following command:

::: {#cb1}
    ssh-keygen -t dsa
:::

Do not create your new key par in the dufault directory (\~/.ssh/). Use
a temporary directory instead. So when you see this,

::: {#cb2}
    Generating public/private dsa key pair.
    Enter file in which to save the key (/root/.ssh/id_dsa):
:::

enter a different filename. When the keygen asks for a pass phrase press
\'enter\' twice to create an empty phrase.
