scp with short password

Question

when i tried to create public private key pair for password which length is less then 4 it does accept my password because of length

is it any option to use scp with short length passwords

Answer 1

A short password is easy to crack and therefore of limited value. If you want to protect your key you should probably choose a longer password.

If you don't need that level of security you can create a key pair without pass phrase (for OpenSSH, just press return when you are prompted for the password during key pair generation).
