Redo pages on using an SSH key to get only 1 password request when using Bianca

Your suggestion

From a user at #109 :

On a related note, while the setting up ssh key worked out nicely for me on Rackham, I was never been able to get it to work on Bianca following the Bianca instructions. i.e. to avoid writing the password a second time. Perhaps it is a macOS issue? Anyway, I still wish for it.

I replied:

I have the same thing on Linux, so I have no idea how to get it to work either. Go ahead and create a new Issue for this request, as I will be closing this one soon 👍

Instead of waiting for the user, I created this Issue :-)

As I've found out I cannot even get a Rackham SSH key working (see https://docs.uppmax.uu.se/software/ssh_key_use_rackham/ for the videos), I will only mention that it may not be possible

[richelbilderbeek]

So, as I cannot get this to work for Rackham, I will likely not be able to get this to work for Bianca.

Maybe a colleague can take over...

I think @bclaremar would like to get this to work. I'll assign him (and he can unassign if he disagrees) :-)

Also @royfrancis had this same question :-)

I was able to get it to work based on Pavlin's instructions here: https://hackmd.io/@pmitev/SSH_tips
In short, the file and folder permissions are important for it to work. It would be nice to have this added to the uppmax documentation.
