Server and Client Configuration
Server Configuration
To set symbolic link handling globally or per user, run the appropriate command:
# asconfigurator -x "set_node_data;symbolic_links,value"
# asconfigurator -x "set_user_data;user_name,username;symbolic_links,value"
For more information, see aspera.conf - File System Configuration on page 63.
Client Configuration
To specify symbolic link handling on the command line (with ascp, ascp4, or async), use --symbolic-
links=option.
Creating SSH Keys
Public key authentication (SSH Key) is a more secure alternative to password authentication that allows users to avoid
entering or storing a password, or sending it over the network. Public key authentication uses the client computer
to generate the key-pair (a public key and a private key). The public key is then provided to the remote computer's
administrator to be installed on that machine.
If you are using this machine as a client to connect to other Aspera servers with public key authentication, you need to
generate a key-pair for the selected user account, as follows:
1.
Create a .ssh directory in your home directory if it does not already exist:
$ mkdir /home/username/.ssh
Go to the .ssh folder:
$ cd /home/username/.ssh
2.
Run ssh-keygen to generate an SSH key-pair.
