use ssh-keygen command to generate private and public key. Add your public key ( id_rsa.pub) in server's authorized_keys file ( located inside .ssh or create if doesn't exist ).

to allow others to login on your computer tell them to run ssh-keygen command on their computer, take their *.pub file and append inside ~/.ssh/authorized_keys file.
