Calculate RSA key fingerprint

The newer SSH commands will list fingerprints as a SHA256 Key.

For example:

ssh-keygen -lf ~/.ssh/id_dsa.pub 
1024 SHA256:19n6fkdz0qqmowiBy6XEaA87EuG/jgWUr44ZSBhJl6Y (DSA)

If you need to compare it against an old fingerprint you also need to specify to use the MD5 fingerprint hashing function.

ssh-keygen -E md5 -lf ~/.ssh/id_dsa.pub
2048 MD5:4d:5b:97:19:8c:fe:06:f0:29:e7:f5:96:77:cb:3c:71 (DSA)

Also available: -E sha1

Update... YES...yes... I know... DSA keys for SSH should no longer be used, the older RSA key or newer ecliptic keys should be used instead.

To those 'admins' that keep editing the command I used in the above. STOP CHANGING IT! You make the command and resulting output mis-match!

To see your key on Ubuntu, just enter the following command on your terminal:

ssh-add -l

You will get an output like this: 2568 0j:20:4b:88:a7:9t:wd:19:f0:d4:4y:9g:27:cf:97:23 yourName@ubuntu (RSA)

If however you get an error like; Could not open a connection to your authentication agent.
Then it means that ssh-agent is not running. You can start/run it with: ssh-agent bash (thanks to @Richard in the comments) and then re-run ssh-add -l

Run the following command to retrieve the SHA256 fingerprint of your SSH key (-l means "list" instead of create a new key, -f means "filename"):

$ ssh-keygen -lf /path/to/ssh/key

So for example, on my machine the command I ran was (using RSA public key):

$ ssh-keygen -lf ~/.ssh/id_rsa.pub
2048 00:11:22:33:44:55:66:77:88:99:aa:bb:cc:dd:ee:ff /Users/username/.ssh/id_rsa.pub (RSA)

To get the GitHub (MD5) fingerprint format with newer versions of ssh-keygen, run:

$ ssh-keygen -E md5 -lf <fileName>

Bonus information:

ssh-keygen -lf also works on known_hosts and authorized_keys files.

To find most public keys on Linux/Unix/OS X systems, run

$ find /etc/ssh /home/*/.ssh /Users/*/.ssh -name '*.pub' -o -name 'authorized_keys' -o -name 'known_hosts'

(If you want to see inside other users' homedirs, you'll have to be root or sudo.)

The ssh-add -l is very similar, but lists the fingerprints of keys added to your agent. (OS X users take note that magic passwordless SSH via Keychain is not the same as using ssh-agent.)
