If you want to copy your SSH keys to a different machine (so that you need not type your password everytime to login) you just need to do `ssh-copy-id user@remotemachine` and it works like a Charm.

Note that ssh-copy-id just copies your

Yes. And that is what you want. You never want to have your private key leave your machine.
