    ssh without password

    I have a small lan. I want to be able to ssh between them without asking for a password - preferably as root. Any pointers. man pages for ssh_config and sshd_config are massive and confusing.

    Hi,

    You have to create a ssh key...

    ssh-keygen -t dsa

    don't enter any password, just hit enter...

    Put the ssh_id.pub (or what ever you called your key) on the /root/.ssh/authorized_keys on the machine you wanna connect to without password...
