linux - How do I run ssh-keygen so that it overwrites without prompting if a key cert exists? -


so have scenario remote call made target machine. it's possible more 1 call made generate ssh keys, in case script hang requests overwrite (y/n).

is there proper way request non-interactive overwrite (or silently ignore) of keys if found?

there doesn't seem --force or --overwrite option in

man ssh-keygen 

that can find. there rationale having function way, or bug should report authors?

any appreciated.

you can work around thusly:

echo -e  'y\n'|ssh-keygen -q -t rsa -n "" -f ~/.ssh/id_rsa 

it still output prompt, complete process , overwrite file.
