I'm looking to configure an rsync task on a 9.2.1.6 FreeNAS host to have it pull from a remote Linux server via ssh, using key-based authentication. Because FreeNAS root user's home directory, /root, is in a read-only file system, I'm unable to save the ssh key for the remote server in the /root/.ssh directory.
What would be an elegant and safe approach to solving this issue?
The one thing I am not allowed to do is to flip the client-server relationship between FreeNAS and the Linux boxes. I can ssh to the Linux box, but I can't ssh to FreeNAS from the Linux box. I also can't do password authentication on the Linux box. It has to be key-based.
Thank you for your help.
