scp - How do you manage ssh keys to add a second user?

I used this article to set up keys and a user to login to a Ubuntu server from a Windows box using Putty.



I would now like to add an additional ssh user that will login from a MacBook. I used ssh-keygen to generate the local keys but I fail in getting the keys copied up to the server. Here is my bash readout (changed in parts for obvious reasons)



MacBook-Pro:~ joe$ scp -2 -P 50022 -v ~/.ssh/id_rsa.pub newuser@111.222.333.444:
