Server-to-Server SSH Key Setup
Time: 1-2 hours
Status: IDENTIFIED - Ready to build
Priority: Tier 1 - Security Foundation
Documentation: docs/tasks/server-ssh-interconnect/

Enable passwordless SSH between all management servers (Command Center, Billing, Panel, Ghost).

Problem: Aurora couldn't SSH from Command Center to Billing - key named 'chronicler' instead of standard 'id_rsa'.

Solution:

  1. Collect public keys from all 4 management servers
  2. Add each server's public key to all other servers' authorized_keys
  3. Test connectivity matrix (4x4 grid)
  4. Document key locations and naming

Servers to interconnect:

  • Command Center (63.143.34.217)
  • Billing VPS (38.68.14.188)
  • Panel VPS (45.94.168.138)
  • Ghost VPS (64.50.188.14)

Benefits: No more switching in MobaXterm, easier automation, cleaner workflows

Note: Billing has non-standard key n
