    ## Windows alternative to ssh-copy-id
    ## Simple Alternative to `ssh-copy-id`

    Replace `user` with the name of the user you want to ssh as.

    Replace the `ip` with the ip of the machine / host / vps you want to connect to.

    ``` shell
    cat ~/.ssh/id_rsa.pub | ssh user@ip "cat >> ~/.ssh/authorized_keys"
    ```

    If the directory .ssh is not yet created on the machine / host / vps, use this small variation:

    ``` shell
    cat ~/.ssh/id_rsa.pub | ssh user@ip "mkdir ~/.ssh; cat >> ~/.ssh/authorized_keys"
    ```
