FreeNAS ESXi SSH Authentication

[Daniels25143]

Hello,
I am trying to setup freenas to perform a graceful shutdown of my ESXi box utilizing NUT. I am trying to utilize the great thread on how to do this here: https://forums.freenas.org/index.ph...rt-for-single-or-multiple-freenas-servers.30/ however I cannot figure out how to setup private key authentication between freenas and ESXi. Is there a resource somewhere that details how to do this? Thanks in advance for the support!

Did you find a how-to?

This isn't exactly for FreeNAS/ESXi, but the principal is the same for generating the keys: https://www.digitalocean.com/community/tutorials/how-to-set-up-ssh-keys--2
