If you want a dead simple way to send your ssh key to a remote server so that you can use key based authentication, just run the following command.

cat .ssh/id_rsa.pub | ssh deploy@myserver.com "cat >> .ssh/authorized_keys2"

Obviously you need to have an existing key generated and you need to adjust for the type of key you have and the server user/address.
