Solution 1. -> I can let them type ok and then the password for the
remote host. then scp the key.

but what level of security is the
scp (indirectly ssh) using to transfer the file obviously it is not
as high as with generating the keys.

how do you specify a max security level for scp when copying the file.


It's secure enought, anyway the password is encrypted and sent only
once. What can be unsecure with password authentification is to have a
weak password during sshd is listening on port 22. Espacially if root
login is enable and have a weak password.
