rsync from one remote to another remote, only local computer has an open ssh key

rsync by itself doesn't support copying between two remote hosts, but if you use sshfs you can pretend one of them is local. If you have a passphrase-less ssh-key, you can even put this script into a cron job.

A faster alternative is to run ssh-keygen on remote1 and put the pubkey into remote2:~/.ssh/authorized_keys, running rsync on remote1 (or vice versa), but the problem with that is that now a hacker on remote1 can access remote2 at any time. The above method ensures your local computer stays the weak link.

...if you have sudo access, you could just install ssh-copy-id (Mac users: take note. this is how you install ssh-copy-id )

Mac install ssh-copy-id

From there on out, you would upload keys to a server like this:

(make sure to double quote the full path to your key)

ssh-copy-id -i "/PATH/TO/YOUR/PRIVATE/KEY" username@server

or, if your SSH server uses a different port (often, they will require that the port be '2222' or some other nonsense:

(note the double quotes on *both* the "/path/to/key" and "user@server -pXXXX"):

ssh-copy-id -i "/PATH/TO/YOUR/PRIVATE/KEY" "username@server -pXXXX"

...where XXXX is the ssh port on that server
