Hi folks,
to support "PasswordAuthentication no" it might be undesirable
to add new users with an initial password in /etc/passwd.
I wonder if it would be possible to support a "destination user"
option on the ssh-copy-id command line, e.g.
ssh-copy-id -i somepath/id_ed25519.pub -u systemuser1 root at newhost
to add the pubkey to ~systemuser1/.ssh/authorized_keys on the
remote host?
Regards
Harri
