How do I access my SSH public key?

I've just generated my RSA key pair, and I wanted to add that key to GitHub.

I tried cd id_rsa.pub and id_rsa.pub, but no luck. How can I access my SSH public key?

Solution

  • cat ~/.ssh/id_rsa.pub or cat ~/.ssh/id_dsa.pub

    You can list all the public keys you have by doing:

    $ ls ~/.ssh/*.pub
