Hi! Usually I do not change anything in ssh configuration. All I do is this: On source machine: [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ ssh-keygen -t dsa <use empty passphrase> [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ cat ~/.ssh/id_dsa.pub On destination machine: [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ vi ~/.ssh/authorized_keys <paste the content of [EMAIL PROTECTED]'s id_dsa.pub and save the file> Now you should be able to do: [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ ssh [EMAIL PROTECTED] without needing to type any password. Hope this helps. Cheers
