10.9: Updating SSH private keys
Authored by: fracai on Feb 21, '14 05:32:55AM

If you follow the source links to the actual source on StackExchange, you'll find that this is only required to fix user error or if you've made some weird changes to your keys.

I haven't had to perform any of these commands and my keys are working just fine.

I can't even count how many times I've seen "I haven't tested this one." at the bottom of a "hint". You'd think that actually testing the hint would be required before posting it on this site.

Take this one for example. Testing would have involved verify the commands work, that they actually fix a problem, and posting about what is actually being fixed.

How much time is actually put aside for this job?
