Good video. I tried the same way as per your video but I am facing issue when I try to send public key from F5 to my SFTP server. I get below error on F5 [prasadd@localhost:Active:Standalone] .ssh # ssh-copy-id -i id_rsa.pub pd@172.18.0.5 /bin/ssh-copy-id: INFO: Source of key(s) to be installed: "id_rsa.pub" mktemp: failed to create file via template '/home/prasadd/.ssh/ssh-copy-id_id.XXXXXXXXXX': No such file or directory /bin/ssh-copy-id: ERROR: mktemp failed I checked all permissions are in place. I tried searching for solution but didnot found as I am not familiar with Linux Do you have any idea what could be the reason for the error.
