1)How can I generate a (protocol 2) ssh key pair using `ssh-keygen` that produces a public key that is composed of less than 1000 characters?
It can be RSA or DSA as long as its Protocol 2.
2)Also do I need to add a passphrase when generating the key? If I do, what will that do? Will the client still need the passphrase to connect to the server if the client has the public key?
Thanks,
