I usually do: ssh-agent ssh-keygen -t rsa <enter> I don't normally key in anything for the password and keep hitting enter until ssh-keygen is done. That works for local files for me and I usually also do ssh-agent ssh--add and ssh-copy-id -i email address for remote location and enter password when prompted. Your mileage may vary. I usually use ssh-agent ssh -l login email domain in this case shellworld.net for ssh and ssh-agent sftp email-address for ftp.
