¶ A) Create the connection
- On the Auto-mount center, click on Create a connection.
- On the drop-down list, choose OpenSSH option.
- Click on Next
- Set the address and port of the remote SSH service
- Define the username that will be identified to the service.
- Set the target directory that will be used as the first root point ( full path of the remote server )
- Set a name of the local directory that will point to the destination.
- Click on Save
¶ B) Retreive the Authorization token
- The connection is not effective after creating it, this is normal because you need to accept the Authentication key on the remote SSH service.
Open the connection setting by clicking on the Source column.
- On the connection settings, you can see 2 new entries, the RSA private key file generated by Artica and the “Authorization Key”
If you need to use your own RSA private key, you can click on it and paste your RSA private key content to obtain a new Authorization key.
Click on the Link of the Authorization key data and copy it.
