To Steve, for the proper remark, and to Ricardo, for the good answer.

You can use ssh-copy-id, e.g.:

ssh-copy-id -i ~/.ssh/id_rsa.pub user@server

Or manually by copying the contents of ~/.ssh/id_rsa.pub into the user’s ~/.ssh/authorized_keys file on the server.

If you do it manually, make sure to put permissions 0700 for ~/.ssh.

Cheers.
