Some disdain using SSH for this purpose at all, but if you want to use SSH for whatever reason, google for ssh hostbased site:liniac.upenn.edu. I can't speak to that being *necessary* for MPICH to run. I'm sure you could just setup hostbased rsh (using /etc/hosts.equiv) and be done with it, although I haven't used that method myself.
