Configuring Your Network 13

Perform secure copies of your

<node_name>.pub

keys to each of your

nodes by using the

scp

command.

The following example is with two nodes:

(node1: Type the following command string):

scp/home/oracle/.ssh/<node1>.pub <ip_of_node2>:

/home/oracle/.ssh

(node2: Type the following command string):

scp/home/oracle/.ssh/<node2>.pub <ip_of_node1>:

/home/oracle/.ssh

Now, each of the systems has the other's public key under the

/home/oracle/.ssh

directory.

Create a file named

authorized_keys

under the

/home/oracle/.ssh

directory

in each of the nodes by using the

touch

command:

touch authorized_keys

Perform the following command on each system:

cat <node1_name>.pub >> authorized_keys

cat <node2_name>.pub >> authorized_keys

Once you have completed step 10 on all the nodes, you are able to

ssh

from each node without being prompted for a password.

Adding Host Entries Within the /etc/hosts File

On each node, modify lines in the /etc/hosts file by typing:

127.0.0.1 localhost.localdomain localhost
