ssh-lastpass/README.md

# Purpose
This script allows you to ssh to a server using an SSH Key and passphrase pulled from your lastpass account.

# ssh.sh Script
## Requirements
This script requires the `lastpass-cli` and `expect` packages.

The SSH Key must be stored in your lastpass account, as a Secure Note of the type SSH Key, with the Private Key and Passphrase fields filled out, at a minimum.

## Usage
1. Download the script to a location of your choosing, ensuring it is executable
2. run it like this: ```./ssh.sh KEYNAME USERNAME server-you-wish-to-ssh-to```

## How it works
This script uses the official `lastpass-cli` package to pull the private key to a file and the private key passphrase to a variable.  The script then uses that information to ssh to the requested server, and removes the private key when the connection is closed.

# ssh-copy-id.sh Script
## Requirements
This script requires the `lastpass-cli` package.

The SSH Key must be stored in your lastpass account, as a Secure Note of the type SSH Key, with the Private Key and Public Key fields filled out, at a minimum.

## Usage
1. Download the script to a location of your choosing, ensuring it is executable
2. run it like this: ```./ssh-copy-id.sh KEYNAME USERNAME server-you-wish-to-ssh-to```
3. You will be prompted to answer if you would like to remove all old ssh keys currently installed on the remote host. This is strongly recommended.

## How it works
This script uses the official `lastpass-cli` package to pull the public and private keys to files.  The script then uses that information to run `ssh-copy-id` to requested server, and removes the key files when the connection is closed.
