Having a couple of problems with rsync and keys. I need to run an rsync session as a cron job and need to bypass the password request. I generated the local and public keys and have the public key saved in the target machine in ~/.ssh/authorised_keys, however whenever I use ssh or rsync both still request a password.
Maybe because the file is named ~/.ssh/authorized_keys (with a "z"), i.e., American and not British spelling? Tip: First make "ssh target_system id" succeed without password request, then configure your rsync cron job.
