Generate a new set of cryptographic keys

"Old machine" is the machine that has the original set of cryptographic keys that were generated. "New machine" is the device you want the new set of cryptographic keys on.

Step 1) Generate a passcode from your Old machine

Choose the operating system that is running on your old machine.

Make sure to replace <REPLACE_client> with your client atSign

~/.local/bin/at_activate otp -a @<REPLACE_client>

Step 2) Make an authorization request on your New machine

Choose the operating system that is running on your new machine.

Make sure to replace the appropriate values: <REPLACE_client> with your client atSign <client_device_name> with a unique name for the device <PASSCODE> with the passcode from Step 1

~/.local/bin/at_activate enroll -a @<REPLACE_client> \
  -s <PASSCODE> \
  -p noports \
  -k ~/.atsign/keys/@<REPLACE_client>_key.atKeys \
  -d <client_device_name> \
  -n "sshnp:rw,sshrvd:rw"

Step 3) Approve the request on your Old machine

Choose the operating system that is running on your old machine.

Make sure to replace <client_device_name> with the device name from Step 2

~/.local/bin/at_activate approve -a @<REPLACE_client> \
  --arx noports \
  --drx <client_device_name>
