To add a new user

1. Gather your desired uid and create a public/private key pair

   • For the uid, login to a CS dept linux machine and run

     id -u
     

   • To generate the keypair, you can run

     ssh-keygen -t ed25519
     

     and your public key will be in $HOME/.ssh/id_ed25519.pub

2. Add a line USERNAME UID to the users.txt file, e.g. by running

   echo "$USER $(id -u)" >>users.txt
   

3. Add the desired public key(s) to a file called USERNAME.pub in the authkeys directory, e.g. by running

   cp ~/.ssh/id_ed25519.pub authkeys/$USER.pub
