When configuring passwordless SSH access from the local Linux server HostA to the remote HostB, which key is copied from HostA to HostB?

Explanation

SSH public-key authentication authorizes a client by storing that client’s public key on the remote host. The private key remains protected on HostA and is used there to prove possession of the corresponding key pair.
