This question is similar to SSH public key authentication - can one public key be used for multiple users? but it's the other way around.
I'm experimenting on using ssh so any ssh server would work for your answers.
Can I have multiple public keys link to the same user? What are the benefits of doing so? Also, can different home directories be set for different keys used (all of which link to the same user)?
Please let me know if I'm unclear.
Thanks.
