This Question asks about getting the fingerprint of a SSH key while generating the new key with ssh-keygen.
But how does one get determine the fingerprint of an existing public key in a .pub file?
➥ How to get:
SHA256 hash of an existing key?
Something like this:SHA256:3VvabBNtRF0XEpYRFnIrhHX6tKZq/vzU+heb3dCYp+0 blah@blah.com
MD5 (is it MD5?) of an existing key?
Something like this:b6:bf:18:b8:72:83:b7:fb:7d:08:98:72:1f:9f:05:27
Randomart for an existing key?
Something like this:
+--[ RSA 2048]----+
| o=. |
| o o++E |
| + . Ooo. |
| + O B.. |
| = *S. |
| o |
