Convert SSH2 format public keys to OpenSSH format
Raw
convert_ssh2_to_openssh.md

SSH2 format will look like this:

---- BEGIN SSH2 PUBLIC KEY ----
Comment: "rsa-key-20201005"
AAAA
....
abcdef==
---- END SSH2 PUBLIC KEY ----

And we will like to convert it to:

AAAA.....abcdef==

Solution:

$ ssh-keygen -i -f key_ssh2.pub > key.pub
