Hello hello! I'm going to throw some Linux talk at you guys with a Windows based agenda. I am setting up a backup server at my house. The goal is to have family members back up to it automatically without them having to initiate the backup process. I have a domain set up, ports forwarded, etc. My family members mostly use Ubuntu, however a few use XP and there's a W7 laptop floating around. That's where I hit the wall with confusion.
In Linux, here's what I do:
ssh-keygen (creates the ssh keys)
ssh-copy-id jayce@myserver (copies the public key to server for authentication purposes)
This enables my two Linux boxes to communicate with backup intensions in mind.
The punch line: How do I do this with an XP or 7 client?
