ssh-import-id

securely retrieve an SSH public key and install it locally

This utility will securely contact a public keyserver (Launchpad.net by default, but Github.com is also supported), retrieve one or more user's public keys, and append these to the current user's ~/.ssh/authorized_keys file.
