Hey.

My apologies. I now I've asked this/solved this before. can't findwhere I placed the  soln.

I have a remote VM. I've created a private/public ssh key for user 'bob' The public key is in the required location on the remote VM.

On my normal local box,, logged in as user 'bob' I have the private key. I can login as user bob -
  ssh bob@remoteServer1
this works, no prob.

My question
 If I'm on user "linda"s machine, logged in as linda, what do I need to do to be able to ssh into the remote server as user 'bob'??

Do I place the private key of user 'bob' in the required ssh file within user linda's ssh dir?

Which implies that I then need to remove the private key once I leave if I don't want linda accessing the remote box later on..

thanks
